Who was making replacement bushings for the shift rod and transmission housing on a side shift?

Like all the bushings from the firewall to the transmission.

Someone was machining them out of bronze if I remember correctly. Did those work better?

J West was selling a kit that had all this stuff and more - if I could find it. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/drooley.gif)

Or what is the best set up available now?

There is a more complete kit available from Pelican (5 piece).
If after replacing the console bushing there is play betwen the bushing and the hole it goes in - use JB weld or expoxy to secure it.
Also, replace your transmission mounts with the 911 sport engine mounts if the trans moves at all (without moving the body)when pushed on.
My mounts were not torn, but I could still deflect them a bit by hand.
Of course these are all polymer parts, I do not know who offers the bronze.
