    Specific parts for '85 325e shifter assy

    Hi, I'm about to have to redo (ugh) my shifter rebuild from a couple of years ago. The shift coupler on the transmission might be near impossible with the harmonic balancer in the way, and that black sheet metal shifter bracket. But my question here is....

    I'm curious if anyone has info on the parts used in this Real OEM diagram, specifically the pieces used on either side of the shift coupler (#14 and #15) and shifter arm bushing (#11). I got this by entering all of the pertinent info about my car. I'm surprised to find no part numbers in this and that it doesn't depict the sheet metal bracket I referenced in the paragraph above.

    Then I found this which appears to fit my car and be the same diagram, this time with parts.

    Can I trust the second link? Thanks!

    Nevermind, I found the correct diagram.

    But I do find it interesting that the parts differ around the shift coupler, even though its the same coupler part in both diagrams. It must be the straight linkage bar that is different.

    Use the last seven characters in Realoem to ‘drill down’ to correct part list…

    …as a side note, typically, the harmonic balancer is located at front of crank, behind the front pulleys.

    No e30s, again :(
    those little parts are just colored plastic washers, also. I guess they are differing thickness though
    No e30s again.
