This thumb lever fits Bukhanka Classic (2.4L & 2.9L) and Hunter & 469 (2.4L & 2.9L) models, serving as the long-shaft version of the gearbox shift linkage. OEM 451-50-1703139 directly connects the selector rod to the gearbox, replacing the shorter stub-shaft variant where extended reach and correct alignment are required. By restoring precise geometry within the shift mechanism, it ensures reliable gear engagement and smooth operation in the clutch and transmission assembly.
Why choose this thumb lever?
This long-shaft lever is manufactured to original factory geometry, ensuring the correct angle and length for linkage alignment. Its design prevents the misalignment and gear mis-engagement that can occur with shorter levers in specific chassis layouts. Built from OEM-grade stamped steel, it guarantees strength and durability for long-term service in demanding off-road and utility conditions.
Technical details:
OEM reference: 451-50-1703139
Variant: Long-shaft thumb lever
Material: OEM-spec stamped steel
Condition: NEW
Compatible models:
Bukhanka Classic (2.4L)
Bukhanka Classic (2.9L)

Installation tips:
Before installation, ensure the vehicle is safely supported and the clutch disengaged. Remove the original lever from the gearbox selector shaft, then fit the long-shaft version carefully, aligning it with the shift rod. Secure with the original fastening clip or bolt, then check for free movement with minimal play. Lightly grease the pivot area to prevent wear and maintain smooth shifting.
When to replace?
Upgrade to this long-shaft lever when your vehicle uses the extended selector rod, or if the shorter lever fails to provide proper alignment. Common symptoms include excessive play, difficulty engaging gears, or mis-shifts. Replacement is also recommended during major transmission or clutch service to restore factory-correct shifting performance.
