When I was pressing in the original nylon bushings before installing the Hurst shifter kit in my 2011 2SS, one of them actually disintegrated. So, figuring that was a bad sign, I forked out for the Hurst Extreme Duty Bushing Kit, P/N 3326030, and used those stainless steel bushings instead. Despite Hurst's warnings about possible increased noise, vibration, and harshness, I notice absolutely no difference from the stock shifter (except of course for a dramatically shorter throw between shifts).

Install was 10,000 miles ago and the shifter is still as slop-free as the day it was installed.

BTW, I used the shift knob & boot for the Chevy Hurst Shifter option for a very nice factory look.
