The Overtake Subaru Transmission Crossmember Bushing Kit replaces those mushy OEM bushings with 80A durometer polyurethane bushings that dramatically reduce drivetrain slop while staying civilized for daily driving. This is the foundation of a proper-shifting Subaru.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe front transmission crossmember mount is one of the most overlooked sources of drivetrain flex in the WRX and STI platform. Factory rubber bushings are designed with large voids that compress and deflect under load, absorbing forces that should be going to the wheels. Over time, they also degrade from heat and oil exposure, making shift quality progressively worse. Overtake's polyurethane bushings are specifically calibrated to eliminate excessive movement while preserving enough compliance for daily comfort. Unlike rock-hard solid mounts that transmit every vibration into the cabin, this durometer strikes the ideal balance. Polyurethane is also unaffected by the contaminants that destroy rubber over time, so performance stays consistent. Expect a slight increase in NVH, but most enthusiasts find this trade-off worthwhile and actually prefer the added drivetrain feedback.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ciframe title=\"YouTube video player\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/KkXpZQkgYrY?si=NKFNzBfFEIDOzPzC\" height=\"315\" width=\"560\"\u003e\u003c\/iframe\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhat You'll Feel:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMore direct gear changes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDramatically improved 2nd-to-3rd shift\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSharper throttle response as torque twist is reduced\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTrue \"connected\" feel to the drivetrain\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFeatures:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e80A durometer polyurethane bushings\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUnaffected by heat, oil, and contaminants\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eReplaces OEM with new stainless steel bushing sleeves\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e60-minute install with basic tools\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNo cutting, drilling, or permanent modifications\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eKit includes four polyurethane transmission crossmember bushings and four stainless steel crossmember bushing sleeves, plus a pack of lubricant.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFits all 2002-2007 Subaru WRX and WRX STI, and 2004-2008 Forester.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Overtake","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43917090586712,"sku":"15090","price":50.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0277\/9175\/files\/A10929-overtake-transmission-crossmemeber-bushing-02-07-1.jpg?v=1774556380","url":"https:\/\/www.fastwrx.com\/products\/overtake-transmission-crossmember-bushing-kit-2002-2007-wrx-sti","provider":"FastWRX.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
