Thanks bro! ✊🏾✊🏾✊🏾 i was tired of having to jump underneath the car while i was halfway in/halfway out a parking space to snap that mug back on all the time....all embarrassed holdin up traffic 😂😂😂
Driving back from Ocean yesterday, pulled over to look at a pretty small park, ready to leave and Whamm!!! Vehicle wouldn't start. Just replaced battery - with new. All lights -on dash worked, but shifter was stuck,unmovable in park. Tried to jump and tried to smack starter solenoid, still no go. Noticed that vehicle would move a bit, so used ebrake. CALLED AAA ( GREAT to have), Driver arrived and was ready to tow, but looked under vehicle first- then said " You're going home". What? "Yes, you're going to be able to ride this home." It was a shift linkage, Exactly just in this video. Took a zip-tie and secured, and Wha-La!!! Vehicle wouldn't start in DRIVE- was reason. Thanks to a few locals to offer assistance, Thanks to AAA for doing a great job coordinating finding a tow truck driver. Thanks for this video- to explain what issue was nd how to fix! Must say that WE ARE BLESSED!
I had been watching a few videos and I will say yours was part of what got me to fix my car! As a single woman this was helpful! Thank you so much!!! ...this was all fun too...I sort of want to take some mechanic 🧰 classes now. 🤔🤔🤔
How I handled my problem on a NJ to FLORIDA drive, stuck at a gas pump in Lumberton NC, was … without having any tools whatsoever and it was 11pm at night… I took my IPhone usb cable and tied knots on the shift cable and transmission lever, and removed all slack, and pulled tightly. I finished my trip to Florida without any issues. AND YES, IM A Genius‼️‼️I didn’t have to pay a mechanic, or Towing or get a room over night.. I kept it pushin’ another 500 miles‼️ I love my cheapness and ingenuity‼️
4 yrs later and you saved my ASS. I was freaking out, but when I saw your video, it felt like a weight was lifted off my shoulders. Fixed it in under 5 minutes after heading to autozone. Thank you for including the part number🙌🏽
@@Okay_Seanteif you have a harbor freight near ya, it's totally worth getting one of their jacks that meets the vehicles weight. For 100-150 bucks, you'll never have to worry about having to jack a car up ever again!
Reading the instruction sheet included with the Dorman 14057 Kit, and I quote, "Yellow shift bushings fit Transmission side of Ford applications ... Clear bushing fits ... Shift and Transmission side of GM applications.
Nice vid really appreciate it! I just did this for my 2003 trailblazer 4.2. I got part 14507 from advanced auto. I bought 14055 as well bc I read different reviews on advanced auto site & on RUclips of people saying 14507 one was wrong size & get the other. 14507 is right for the 2003 trailblazer 4.2 (the orange bushings) slid it onto the lever thing then put the linkage on, had to use force then I heard it snap & lock in place. I then pushed the cap on & that tightened as well. Thought I’d put this out there bc I found plenty conflicting info, hoping to save someone else the headache.
Wow just got off of work a businesswoman in my business outfit and my gear got stuck out of all the videos yours truly truly did the job you helped me and you have no idea how much you just help me thank you so much keep doing what you’re doing man
thank you, this is the best video on the subject I've seen. I had this issue on my 1999 GMC Jimmy, well done. If you ever find yourself in Western Nebraska look me up, I'll take you to the range and we'll ring some steel
I was able to find this video and fix my problem in a random parking lot. Thanks for breaking it down and being super clear. I put the big side on the side that’s supposed to connect 🤙 Can you contact me I wanna buy you a beer 🍺🙏
thank you so muck for you video! I had the same problem on my 05' envoy and know next to nothing about cars. went and got the same part at auto part store and had a buddy slide under and but it on took about five minutes because the old bushing was playing hard to take off.
@@Okay_Seante For me, it was under the driver's side, and no, we did not jack it up; my homie just slid under, but if we had a jack, we would have used it.
This video got me out and about. God bless you brother. I thought my fishing trip turned out bad but after this video it made it a hell of lot better. Thanks
This happened to me this morning I stopped at the gas station with my daughter shes 39 and cut the car off and I noticed when I put it in park that it sure was easy to do so so she put the gas in and get ready to start the car and nothing so I thought it was a battery I thought it was a starter blah blah blah. So I did a Google search and it said something about transmission cable so I said to my daughter go look up there in the hood and see if you see anything moving and she saw this thing going back-and-forth she reached in and she said it looks like it’s loose and it should be attached to that other piece over there.Oh so she attached it and I started the car right up and then I looked at your video and it shows me what little piece I need to replace because right now all we’re doing is just having to stick it down into the hole until we get the bushing thank you so much. Mother and daughter minds work together better peace and love
And in 2016 Cadillac still sell vehicles with this problem. I have a 2016 CTS and their factor plastic bushing came undone. You would think after several years of customer complaints about this ongoing issue they would made an upgrade to the part but that's the exact same looking part on my 2016. Dealership wanted $1000 to replace the cable. Literally you can go under your car and push this thing in place and it will switch gears thereafter. It will continue to come loose because you need to replace the bushing as you did in this video. The dealership will tell you no we cant replace just the bushing, we replacing the whole cable. Which means they have to tear open your driver side floor and center console and shifter knob to remove old wire and rerun a new wire. Who knows what they can mess up next tearing all sorts of stuff up. As an owner of my car, the last thing I want is to have a mechanic tear down my car, I'd rather go the easiest route and make the bushing myself. Which I did....
Omg 😱 this happened to me today at a Walmart parking lot. Called AAA and the guy put it back on for me and now tomorrow I will try to fix this looks pretty easy. Thanks to this video
Thanks bro! I got stuck in a mall plaza and had to go to advance auto & buy this for 18$ and come back and do it in the mall parking lot. U saved my life cuz I didn’t know what part to Buy!
@@brandoncollar4982What trouble are you experiencing? Mine's been pretty rock-solid, with only one major expense ($500.00 when the dashboard face vent motor went south @ 180, 000 +/- miles, and only 1 tune up @ the same time ($500.00). She's got over 182,000 miles on her now, and frankly, I enjoy driving her more than my wife's 2020 Nissan Rogue LSawd, which to me feels like a go kart married a pinball machine/video game, and had a baby.
If you look at the instructions then you will see that the flanges go in the opposite side on the cable. To get a snug fit this is the proper way. On this repair the tension from the level will pull it off the pin. I wish I could add the picture.
Thanks for the video. Have a 2006 Chevy Trailblazer. Got the Dorman item #14057 from Advanced Auto parts $14.49 +tax. Put the 2 orange pieces in just like he said. Snapped the pin right in. Eezy peezy. No tools needed.
Great job, a little note yo add sometimes the little nipple on the end of the shift shaft is worn and you have to weld a new nipple on so it dont fall off , weld and grind it to correct diameter. I like to do it anyways just for a better hold, nothing like getting stuck in your suit and tie and having to get under there and fish it back on lol
Great video. You saved me a lot of work.. Dorman is very slack with their instructions. OK don't use the orange, it doesn't lock very well. Dorman 14055 might be better.
Replaced my radiator then took it off ramps last night and the linkage popped off and now I gotta spend 14.95 4 a piece of plastic to keep this selector on " great.
I tried using the orange pieces from dorman 14057, but cable kept falling off. I do live in the rust belt and tip of transmission bracket/lever was rusted and worn. If you also deal with rust, I'd advise replacing the bracket, gm part#15251895. Also, the clear bushing from dorman #14055 looks exactly like the oem bushing and locks onto the groove of bracket tip.
Thank you for sharing. I picked up a "Shift Linkage Bushing Kit" from Doorman but the number on it is 14055 which is a different number from years. It has a white piece that's like the orange one you put in the hole that clipped into the knobie and there is a clear one that looks like the white one but smaller..I have the 04 Envoy. Now I'm thinking maybe I got the wrong piece even tho it says it fits for a GM - SE Adapta and S Adapte.
The auto parts store may have this part in an assortment kit. I have this vehicle, but I got creative (lazy) and removed the piece and reversed it back onto the shift lever pin. Prolly should replace it before the cold weather sets in. Know whattamean ...
Thanks for posting this video . I had same problem . I had to show my mechanic the video he tried putting on the clear things till he watched your video. Are you supposed to use all the parts?
Instructions said the yellow/orange bushings are for Fords and clear ones are for GM. Either way this is not a good repair kit. I had to modify one of the clear bushings to get it to slide inside the linkage
I spent 3 hours trying to fit the clear bushings, modifying them and they still wouldn't go in. Finally went with the "Ford" orange ones for my 09 Yukon....
I wonder if a person could JB Weld that bushing once you pop the new bushing on and JB Weld over the new bushing to lock it in place? I’ve heard a lot of people say those bushings break over so many months. Just a thought .
i’m having a really hard time getting this piece to fit into my shift cable on my 02 envoy. even though it’s the right size, it doesn’t wanna go in. any tips?
Great video I have a question once I made the reconnection I now have a new issue. I can now put the car in gear but when I try to put it back in park again the hand shifter is loose again and I have to get back under the truck to manually put it back in park with my hand and this allows the process to repeat itself. I can pull the shifter in gear but it's no tension/retraction for it to go back to park. Is there a way to tighten the linkage cable that's what I need to know. Your help would be greatly appreciated bud thanks 👍😎👌
@@dewaynemitchell302 we ended up getting it on by hammering it in. Putting something flat over it and just hammering it to push the plastic on evenly. Took 12 hrs total from start to finish.. changing my valve cover gaskets was easier and faster
Hi , thank you for your video , what are the other " 2 Clear bushing" use for , I just purchased the kit and I'd like to know if there is use for somewhere or is just an extra part in case there are different models Your response will be appreciated
