Overtake Transmission Crossmember Bushing Kit 2002-2007 WRX / 2004-2007 STI | 80A Polyurethane | Drivetrain Mount Upgrade
Overview
The Overtake Transmission Crossmember Bushing Kit is designed to replace the factory rubber bushings in the front transmission crossmember of 2002-2007 Subaru WRX and 2004-2007 Subaru WRX STI models. These OEM bushings are soft and voided, allowing excessive drivetrain movement that results in a disconnected and imprecise shifting experience. This kit upgrades those bushings to a durable 80A durometer polyurethane compound, significantly reducing drivetrain slop and improving shift feel without sacrificing daily drivability.
Engineered with a focus on balancing performance and comfort, Overtake’s bushings are calibrated to eliminate unwanted flex while maintaining enough compliance to avoid harsh vibrations in the cabin. The kit includes stainless steel bushing sleeves to ensure a precise fit and long-lasting durability. Unlike solid mounts that can increase noise and harshness, these polyurethane bushings resist heat, oil, and contaminants that typically degrade rubber over time, providing consistent performance for Subaru enthusiasts.
For Subaru owners looking to sharpen throttle response and gain a more connected feel through the drivetrain, this bushing kit addresses one of the most overlooked sources of drivetrain flex. The result is more deliberate gear changes, especially noticeable during the critical 2nd-to-3rd shift, and an overall enhanced driving experience that complements other performance modifications.
