Jk TC bushing cluster

I just changed mine. The plastic/rubber feeling bushing snaps in the cable fitting then you push it on the pin. Easy fix if your center console will come all the way out.

I am not understanding how this works, where the pin graps and what holds the other end in.

I believe the brass bushing presses on like the plastic one would, then you press on the TC linkage, the put the hitch pin on.  I think there is a lip that holds the hitch pin from pushing off.  Another option would be to drill a small hole and insert the hitch pin through the hold or safety wire the hitch pin to the bushing.

Safety wire FTW

easy fix until it breaks again.  Then a total pain to deal with...remember where yours broke.

I know Doug remembers where his broke

Mine broke at the absolutely very best place in the world one could fail.

Leaving the trail rolling onto pavement at the last trail on the last day of wheeling in MOAB.

I've kept a spare one in my Jeep since I had my '09 Rubi.  I had one break during the first ride I ever took with GATR back in '09.  I fixed it on the trail with a tie wrap until I got a new one.

And a preemptive STFU for an TJ/LJ/CJ guys.

Feel the love.
After dealing with the stock stuff, AW4 swap, 241OR swap and a extreme belly up on the white TJ I finally went to a cable shifter setup. I did the cable swap ASAP on the LJ.
I don't see why your idea won't work.

It's jealousy 

Novak?
Very clean.

Yes, Novak.

As I understand it, the new bushings MOPAR sells have been redesigned using a better, non brittle material. I never had a failure on mine and when I just had the trans replaced they replaced the bushings at that time too.
