Adjustable BMW gearbox shifter linkage (DSSR)
130.00 €
The Adjustable BMW Gearbox Shifter Linkage (DSSR) is a heavy-duty, precision-milled selector rod engineered to eliminate play in the BMW shift mechanism. Using a dual-shear joint design, it provides a direct, rattle-free connection between the shifter and gearbox — delivering measurably more precise gear engagement compared to the factory linkage.
Machined from 6082 aluminium alloy and hard anodised for long-term durability, the rod’s fully adjustable length allows fine-tuning of shifter position for road use, track days, and full race car configurations. Supplied with a gearbox joint and stainless steel hardware. Compatible with a wide range of BMW E-series, F-series, G-series, and M model platforms.

Adjustable BMW Gearbox Shifter Linkage – DSSR Selector Rod
The Adjustable BMW Gearbox Shifter Linkage (DSSR) is a precision-machined, heavy-duty selector rod designed specifically for BMW manual transmission applications. Milled from high-strength 6082 aluminium alloy and hard anodised for corrosion resistance, this DSSR (Dual-Shear Selector Rod) replaces the factory shift linkage with a component engineered to eliminate play and improve gear engagement accuracy.
Developed for road cars, track cars, and full race builds alike, this adjustable selector rod is compatible with a wide range of BMW platforms — from the classic E30 and E36 to the latest G-series chassis. It is supplied complete with a gearbox joint and stainless steel hardware, ready for direct installation.
Key Features & Benefits
- Dual-shear design – The DSSR configuration eliminates unwanted play in the shift mechanism, providing a direct and precise connection between the shifter and gearbox.
- Fully adjustable length – The rod can be shortened and set to the exact required length, allowing fine-tuning of shifter position for both road and race applications.
- Milled from 6082 aluminium alloy – High-strength aerospace-grade aluminium ensures a lightweight yet robust construction suitable for demanding motorsport conditions.
- Hard anodised surface finish – Provides excellent resistance to wear, corrosion, and abrasion, extending the service life of the component.
- Supplied with gearbox joint and stainless steel hardware – Everything required for installation is included; no additional fasteners needed.
- Shifter relocation capability – The adjustability makes this rod suitable for custom pedal box setups, roll cage installations, and race car cockpit modifications.
- Wide BMW model compatibility – Engineered to fit across multiple BMW generations, covering E-series through G-series platforms and dedicated M models.
- Direct replacement for factory linkage – Designed as a drop-in upgrade; no fabrication or custom modification required for standard installations.
Materials & Construction
- 6082 Aluminium Alloy – A high-strength structural aluminium used in motorsport and aerospace applications, offering an excellent strength-to-weight ratio and good machinability. Chosen here for its rigidity under repeated load cycles and resistance to deformation.
- Hard Anodising – An electrochemical surface treatment that creates a dense oxide layer on the aluminium, significantly improving hardness and wear resistance compared to standard anodising.
- Stainless Steel Hardware – All fasteners and joint components are stainless steel, ensuring long-term corrosion resistance even under track or wet-weather use.
- Dual-Shear Joint Design – The dual-shear configuration distributes load across two shear planes, eliminating flex and radial play that typically degrades shift quality in single-shear OEM designs.
Applications
- Replacement of worn or imprecise factory BMW selector rods to restore OEM shift quality
- Short-shift or shifter relocation conversions on track-prepared BMW vehicles
- Race car builds requiring a custom shifter position or extended/shortened linkage length
- Road car performance upgrades targeting improved gear engagement feel and reduced shift throw
- Integration with aftermarket short-shift kits and sequential shifter conversions
- Restoration or refresh of high-mileage BMW gearbox linkage systems
Why This Gearbox Selector Rod Is Important
A worn or poorly designed selector rod introduces vagueness and unwanted movement into the shift mechanism, making gear selection slower and less reliable — a significant disadvantage on track and a frustration on the road. The Adjustable BMW Gearbox Shifter Linkage (DSSR) resolves this by using a dual-shear joint that eliminates radial play at the connection point, ensuring every gear change is direct and predictable. The adjustable length further allows the component to be tailored precisely to each application, making it equally suited to standard road car installations and custom race car cockpit configurations.
