Energy Suspension Black Shifter Bushings for Honda Civic/CRX

Energy Suspension Shifter Rod Bushings - Civic/CRX/DelSol

If your Honda shifter feels loose, rubbery, or just plain tired, this Civic Gear Stabilizer and shifter bushing setup is where you start. Energy Suspension’s Black Hyper-Flex Shifter Bushings (SKU: ENS-161102G) replace the soft, worn factory Manual Transmission Bushings on:

• 1988–2000 Honda Civic (manual)
• 1988–1991 Honda CRX (manual)
• 1993–1997 Honda Del Sol (manual, non-VTEC)

These Polyurethane Shifter Bushings tighten up the whole linkage: less slop at the gear lever, more direct feel, and a noticeable click into gear instead of a vague push. We run these same Honda Gear Shift Bushings on our own Civics and CRXs because they’re cheap, they work, and they don’t mush out like 25-year-old rubber.

From the factory, the stabilizer bar bushings on the Civic, CRX, and Del Sol wear, crack, and soften. That’s why your shifter wanders around in gear and feels like it’s attached with Jell‑O. Swapping to Energy Suspension Black Bushings turns that vague motion into something you can actually trust, whether you’re banging gears on a backroad or just cleaning up your daily’s Honda Manual Transmission Upgrade.

Key Features:

• Hyper-Flex Polyurethane: Stiffer than OEM rubber, so the CRX Shifter Bushings and Del Sol Shifter Bushings don’t deform under load. You get consistent feel, even after years of abuse.
• Tighter, more precise shifts: Cuts down gear play and side-to-side slop. You’ll feel each gate in the pattern instead of hunting for it.
• Wide Honda fitment: Works as a Civic Manual Transmission Upgrade, CRX Manual Transmission Upgrade, and Del Sol Manual Transmission Upgrade using the same CRX Gear Stabilizer / Civic Gear Stabilizer / Del Sol Gear Stabilizer style layout.
• DIY-friendly install: Basic hand tools, some jack stands, and an afternoon. If you’ve ever pulled a shifter linkage, you can handle these Civic Shifter Bushings and CRX Shifter Bushings.
• Built to outlast OEM: Poly handles heat, oil mist, and age much better than stock rubber, so you’re not redoing your Manual Transmission Bushings every few years.

If you’re chasing a sharper shift feel without dropping big money on a full shifter assembly, these Hyper Flex Shifter Bushings from Energy Suspension are the logical first step. Whether it’s a track toy or a commuter, your Civic, CRX, or Del Sol will finally shift like it should have from the factory.
