Default 2005 Mustang V6..Hurst Comp/Plus rattle fix confirmed

Hey guys I just thought i'd throw out there that I finally got around to changing the rear bushing on my Hurst Comp/Plus to the factory bushing. Didn't even have to remove the entire shifter to swap bushings, just the 2 rear nuts. No more garbage sound coming out of the tranny area in 3rd gear anymore. I confirmed it with a nice little romp around the neighborhood.

Out of the corner of my eye I could see my brother look over at me as I unexpectedly power shifted into 2nd at 5,500 RPM's. Then we almost had a ****-fit of laughter as I missed 3rd gear!

Good fix... Guess that's the price we pay for poly bushings.

Thanks to tips from AFM I re-used the stock rear bushing from the beginning. How sweet is that?

Sweeter than driving around with a poly-urethane bushing on there for 4 months with a horrifying rattle noise every time you use 3rd gear.

i dont know about this reusing the stock rear bushing to eliminate the rattle guys. i put my stock rear bushing in awhile ago and still get the rattle. now what? if you hold the stick it goes away. im thinking maybe the stick has a resonance to it and to use some dynamat type stuff. anybody notice the stock stick has a rubber thingey at the the base? hmm

Well I dont know whats going on with yours but mine sounds like the stock shifter.

Some guys were putting thin rubber washers in between the chrome handle and the shifter stick and thats working for them.
