BMS BMW Billet Shift Rod for E82 135i and E90 335i
Upgrade the feel of your BMW’s manual gearbox with the BMS BMW Billet Shift Rod. Designed specifically for BMW E82 135i and BMW E90 335i E chassis models, this precision-engineered Burger Motorsports billet shift rod replaces the factory component that uses a plastic bushing, reducing unwanted play and delivering tighter, more precise gear changes. It works brilliantly with the BMS Short Throw Shifter and also improves shift quality with the factory OEM shifter and other aftermarket shifters.
Manufactured in the USA from a single piece of billet steel, this shift rod is built for durability and a lifetime of smooth, positive shifts. If you are searching for a BMW 135i shift rod, BMW 335i shift rod, BMW E82 shift upgrade or a BMW E90 shifter slop fix, this is the proven solution.
