How hard to change a short shifter ?

[ej22t]

Hi People, just got a short shifter as a gift for my Legacy turbo, I would like to know how hard to get this stick change??
I already have a 02 WRX shift linkage and this shifter will fit without any problem, but I would like to know can I DIY to do this swap and how long will it take?? Does anyone have a write up on how to do it, thanks for help!

process will be the same as my sti short shifter install.

I'd recommend the kartboy bushings if you don't already have them. They really make a difference.

You could pop the new short throw lever in before you put the linkage in the car if you want.

if you have questions, just ask.
