914Rubber Rix Conversion Shift Bushing for Porsche 914 (1970-72)

Upgrade your Porsche 914’s shifting with the 914Rubber Rix Conversion Shift Bushing, designed for 1970-72 models converting from tail-shift to side-shift transmissions. PMB Performance, with 20 years of Porsche expertise, is the leading 914Rubber retailer, stocking more of their SKUs than anyone else. Our nearly two-decade partnership with 914Rubber ensures you get precision-engineered parts backed by deep technical knowledge.

This conversion bushing (Part #RIX.914.424.224.00.3CNV) enables the use of a side-shift (1973-76) 901 or 915 transmission in early 914s with tail-shift setups. Made from durable urethane, it adapts the larger firewall hole to the smaller side-shift rod, ensuring a snug fit without excessive play. Unlike OEM solid-ring bushings, this snap-in design simplifies installation, requiring no permanent modifications. PMB Performance has used these in numerous conversions, with customers saying, “Shifting is smooth and precise after the side-shift swap!” One bushing is required per car.

Why this part? Early 914 tail-shift transmissions can feel vague, and upgrading to a side-shift setup improves shift quality but requires firewall adaptation. This bushing eliminates slop, ensuring reliable gear engagement, critical for the 914’s mid-engine dynamics. For detailed installation steps, including firewall preparation, visit 914Rubber’s Tribal Knowledge Wiki. Note: Drilling and screws or rivets may be needed for secure mounting.

Installation requires a 10mm wrench, drill, snap ring pliers, and lithium grease. Access the shift rod at the firewall, remove the old bushing, and install the new one, drilling the firewall for screws or rivets to secure it. Apply grease for smooth operation and check rod alignment. Torque any bolts to 8 Nm. One bushing is needed per car, compatible with 1970-72 914 models undergoing side-shift conversion.

With PMB Performance’s 20 years of Porsche restoration experience and 914Rubber’s precision engineering, this Rix Conversion Shift Bushing delivers reliability and performance. Whether you’re upgrading your 914 for track or street, trust us to make your side-shift conversion seamless. Questions? Call (855) 786-7101 or email Support@pmbperformance.com.
