Does anyone know where to get the bushing that supports the shift rod at the transmission for a tail shift car? Apparently, it has a smaller inside diameter than the ones that go on the firewall and under the shifter. I looked on 914rubber, AA and Pelican and can’t seem to find it.

Sadly due to the geometry, the rod should not be super tight in that bushing.
Unless you can get the rod perfectly parallel to the transmission centerline it will bind if the bushing is too tight. I bit of wiggle is intentional to allow for smooth shifting. The three at the same. the firewall bushing is its own unique part. Rich |
