Does any one know where to get brass shift rod bushings for a '73-'76 car and how much are they ? (i.e. Shift rod firewall bushing, Transmission console bushing & Coupler bushing set(2))

Is there an effective uprated verison of the ball cup bushing or is it better just to stick with the standard one ?

Many thanks

The only "stock" brass/bronze bushing is the shifter console bushing currently, and the rest are nylon replacements.

I made a whole set out of brass/bronze to include the firewall, shifter console, and ball cup.

Also the shifter u-joint can only be purchased as delrin/nylon.

If you have the inclination, find a machine shop and give him all the measurements to make up a set for yourself.
I actually made two sets...just in case I need them.

JWest Engineering makes a pretty decent shifter rod replacement solution that includes a few new bushings, rod, etc etc.
Look it up in the member vendor forum here.
