Features, Description, Q&A, Specs & Installation
Restored Shifter Centering and Positive Engagement. The Manual Transmission Shift Rod Spring for 1980-1986 Jeep CJ5 & CJ7 is engineered to restore the crisp, tactile feedback of your Jeep's gear selector by providing the essential tension needed for proper gate alignment. Over decades of use, factory springs often lose their elasticity or snap, resulting in a sloppy or loose shifter that makes finding gears difficult. By installing this high-tension replacement, you ensure that the shift lever returns to its neutral center position and remains securely engaged in gear, providing a much more confident and predictable driving experience during both daily commutes and off-road adventures.
High-Tensile Spring Steel for Fatigue Resistance. Built to endure the repetitive stress of thousands of gear changes, the Manual Transmission Shift Rod Spring for 1980-1986 Jeep CJ5 & CJ7 is manufactured from premium-grade spring steel. This material is specifically heat-treated to maintain its memory and rate of compression through extreme temperature fluctuations within the transmission tunnel. Whether you are navigating a freezing winter morning or a scorching summer trail, this spring resists sagging and brittle failure, ensuring that your shifting mechanism maintains its factory-fresh feel for years to come.
Installation. Putting this Manual Transmission Shift Rod Spring on your Jeep CJ5 & CJ7 takes 2 hours to install.
Warranty. There is a limited lifetime warranty on this product.
Application. The Manual Transmission Shift Rod Spring fits 1980-1986 Jeep CJ5 & CJ7 models.
