120 Prado shift lever repair kit

[Guest Close Guest]

Another victim,
First time since I bought my 05 Prado that I went into low range for some climbing over bumpy stuff. Selector was tight and had to pull hard to get into 2nd. Didn't feel good and selector loose and not locking in 4 or L now.

Thank goodness for this repair kit. I was not looking forward to the $1k replacement part. Not being able to lock into 4 whilst I'm towing my boat is not fun at all.

Hope you've got yours and fitted.

Email order sent Andrew
Difficulty selecting L in the transmission shift gate, hoping the upgrade will solve this issue.
Cheers
Troy

Hi Andrew & All
Just fitted the new bullet and spring to the shift mechanism .
Happy to say that I can now select all gears with ease.
There was enough surplus white grease on the mechanism to lube the new pin and spring as well as a light coat on the shifter gate.!
This mod should be on everyones to do list-just like the Hilux washer jets.
Well done and thanks AMTS

That's great foxclan. Glad that it fixed the problem.

Hi Andrew

Just fitted the new bullet, spring and washer. The photo instructions were easy to follow and the auto gear lever is working good as new. Would love to know where the old bullet went!!

Cheers

Good to hear!
I was testing the new batch of bullets when mine fell into the side of the console and then under the carpet. The more I peeled back the carpet the further down it went. Eventually fished it out.

Lol good one Andrew. I should add that mine works a treat too. Much better than before

Hi Andrew.

I hope I've got this posting process correct. Just a follow up message. I'm a new member appreciating this great forum and emailed you last evening re purchase of the kit. Will probably require 2 as my son also has same vehicle.

Many thanks.

I have had one of these floating around for a long time, seeing as I had the console apart again for the 50 millionth time doing some other work I thought I should do some preventative maintenance and fit it, piece of cake.

Just need to put everything else back together so I can drive the old girl and test it out

Cheers Andrew

Good stuff, Andrew. Here's to many more kms of reliable shifting.

Hi Andrew, I have sent you an email regarding parts. I broke mine on high country trip, it still selects ok just doesn't hold in third and is sloppy. Cheers
