Hey guys, I am in need of trying to replace my broken/missing bushings that go over the shoulder bolt which mounts the shifter to the housing. I know dorman makes the entire shift linkage (600-602) with the two bushings, but I only need the bushings. Anyone know where I can find some?

Thanks,
Dan

The plastice "T" part was broke on mine, ended up using what was left (bushing part) and it worked. I have no idea where you would purchase exact replacements, but maybe a piece of copper tubing would work? You could try True Value or Ace Hardware. You may end up making them out of some plactic sheet or vinyl siding. Beer can aluminum works wonders too.

I really want to stick with the plastic/nylon material. Metal to metal contact is what these bushings avoid. Prevents metal from corroding or rusting together and which allows smooth rotation of shift lever. Hoping someone might have some of these laying around or parting out a truck in which I might buy them.

Thanks,
Dan
