About This Product
This shifter pawl spacer is a critical small component for maintaining proper alignment within the transmission. Designed as a direct OEM replacement for part number 34461-72, it ensures the shifter mechanism operates smoothly without excessive lateral play. It fits late 1979 to 1986 4-speed Big Twin models as well as 1972 to 1990 XL Sportsters. Most setups require two of these spacers for a complete refresh, and this item is conveniently sold as a pack of five. Whether you are rebuilding a vintage Ironhead or maintaining a classic Shovelhead 4-speed, using high-quality hardware like this MCS spacer helps prevent shifting hang-ups and premature wear on the pawl assembly.
Manufacturer part number: 590166.
