If you desire the ultimate in shifting, the JH Motorsports B6/B7 A4 Solid Linkage Upgrade is the perfect solution. This linkage upgrade replaces the OEM rubber/plastic socket assembly with a steel spherical bearing (similar to what the JHM Solid Shifter does for the OEM shifter box). This will give you a full mechanical race car feel, and eliminates sloppiness allowing you to optimize shifts on the street or at the track. The linkage is most purposeful when used with the JHM Solid Shifter and the JHM Delrin Shifter Stabilizer Bushing, however these parts will compliment any SS kit, including stock shifters.

To completely upgrade your stock shifting components for the best possible shifts, make sure to add our Solid Short Throw Shifter and the Solid Stabilizer Bushing to your order if you do not already have them.

INCLUDES THE FOLLOWING – JHM shift shaft link(reuse your stock rubber boot), JHM Modified Steel Spherical bearing, stainless steel spacers, all hardware, loctite and synthetic grease.

(This linkage is located at the transmission and is separate from our shifter) This linkage fits all B6/B7 A4 6-speeds, 2004 and On. The removal of the linkage rod is not too bad on the 1.8t and the 2.0t since it is located on the drivers side (Opposite side of where the downpipe is).

COMES AS A COMPLETE DO IT YOURSELF KIT Cutting is required to allow proper clearance.

PICTURE OF THE JHM BUSHING VS. STOCK –>HERE

NOTE: This bushing will transfer more noise and vibration to your shifter and shifter box vs. the stock rubber bushing. This is what gives you the enhanced feel and confidence when shifting. This is recommended for serious enthusiasts only; who want to fully compliment their JHM solid short throw shifter and linkage upgrade and want their car to shift as precise as possible.
