Sloppy Shifting or
Rattling Shift Knob?
Our repair kits will cure
these common Fiat Spider complaints!


Two common Fiat Spider problems are sloppy shifting (where the shift lever flops around and doesn't find a gear accurately) or a "loose" or "rattled" shift knob (where the shift knob does not seem to be positively attached on or vibrates at speed). Either of these can seriously interfere with the pleasure of driving your Spider.

Now these common problems can be easily solved with our new kits designed to address exactly these Fiat Spider gremlins!

Sloppy Shifting... Here is your answer... our 8-piece Shifter Pivot Kit addresses the common problem of sloppy or missed or hard shifts with all FIAT 124/2000 Spider 5-speed transmissions. The pivots, plates and other parts that make up the shifter pivot wear over time and introduce various shifting problems.

Now, our Shifter Pivot Kit will cure these ills and bring your Spider back to the crisp and accurate shifting that was enjoyed when new!

Our kit #5068k includes: #24 spring, # 25 metal cover, #26 plastic cover, #27 metal cup, #28 washer, #29 lock nut, #30 lower cover, and (not shown in drawing, but it is shown in the photo) hairclip spring.

Shifter Pivot Kit, part # 5068k, $45.81

 

And while you are "in there" don't forget a new lower shift boot.... that is the one made of black rubber with the foam seal around it. #21 in the drawing.

"lower" shift boot, black rubber with foam surround, part # 5001, $25.92

 

Rattling Shift Knob...  Even the best of FIAT Spiders can suffer from the dreaded rattling shift lever syndrome, but this is an easy fix. Does your shift knob vibrate at certain speeds or at certain RPM's? Usually this is caused by decayed or hardened bushings between the inner and outer shift levers. Simply use our "Shift Lever Kit" to replace the rubber and plastic bushings that hold the inner shift lever to the outer chrome shift lever and smooth out your day!

Caribou's kit #5062 includes: #3 rubber bushing, two of #4 rubber bushing, #5 plastic bushing, #6 plastic bushing.

Shift Lever Kit, part # 5062, $19.10
