Maintain smooth and precise gear selection with this Genuine Nissan Gearbox Shifter Spring, designed specifically for Nissan Patrol GU Y61 models fitted with ZD30, TB, and TD42 engines equipped with manual transmissions. This OEM spring plays a vital role in the gearbox shifter/selector assembly, helping return the gear lever to its correct neutral position after gear changes.

Over time, shifter springs can weaken, stretch, corrode, or fatigue due to repeated shifting, heat cycles, vibration, and exposure to dust, mud, and moisture, particularly in off-road and heavy-duty applications. A worn or damaged spring may result in sloppy gear selection, poor centering action, or difficulty engaging gears smoothly.

Manufactured to genuine Nissan specifications, this direct-fit replacement spring restores proper shift feel, correct centering tension, and long-term reliability in touring, towing, off-road, and everyday driving conditions.
