DARKMATTERX DM-1 Precision Shift Arm 2004-2007 STI w/ DM-1 Shifter

The DM-1 Precision Shift Arm replaces the entire OEM shift arm, and gives you the most precise shifting possible when paired with your DM-1 Shifter. The needle bearing u-joint used in this shift arm instantly eliminates all left-and-right play found in the OEM shift arm design. A billet mechanical joint has been added in the DM-1 Precision Shift Arm that serves to smoothen shifting and give a more, "gated" feeling in the shifting experience. Cerakoting, anodizing, and even a rubber boot for the u-joint are used to permanently protect the shift arm.

Features:

• Needle Bearing U-Joint: Welded to our shift arm is a precision, needle bearing u-joint that requires no assembly unlike the OEM & aftermarket designs. Our u-joint is preloaded with needle bearings for smooth, instantaneous engagement which eliminates all slop present in the OEM design. Other aftermarket designs can't achieve this ease of movement because there is no way to tighten the connections down all the way without binding up your shift linkage. Even a rubber boot is included to protect the u-joint from the outside elements.
• Billet Mechanical U-Joint: A new joint has been added into the DM-1 Precision Shift Arm! This adds value to the shifting experience by giving a smoother movement to the shift pattern in the left-and-right movements of the shifter. The joint is comprised of 100% CNC machined billet aluminum and steel components for its precise fit and operation.
• Both a Cerakoted and Annodized finish ensure that this product lasts a lifetime by protecting the metal from the environment.

Fitment:

•  Subaru STI (2004-2007) with a DM-1 / V2 / V3 Shifter
