Shared Vanagon Dictionary

• Check rod

  Flat piece of metal on hinge side of door that prevents the door from opening too far out

• Front shift rod bushing

  A replaceable guide bushing for the forward section of the gearshift linkage. Paruzzi separates these front bushings from the middle and rear supports and lists this Vanagon/T25 part for Type-4 or diesel engines through July 1982, and CT or CZ engines through December 1982. Check the actual engine and linkage against that catalog scope; “front” alone does not confirm fitment.
