While im stripping my talon down to the bare metal for the scrap yard. I decided to rebuild my shifter base. This shifter base will be going in my new 1995 GSX. These shifter bases tend to rust out and get play in them. I stripped it down, got the rust off, installed new bolts, greased up what needed to be greased up and new bushings! Enjoy :hellyeah:

Did you just sand them down or use a certain product? Either way it looks great but why are you scrapping your talon?

Looks great I need to replace the bushings in mines it feels flimsy think I might sand and paint mines as well.

Used a wire wheel, had a spare spring, just used standard high heat paint flat black. Lubed all points up with wheel bearing grease.
