I found these on Ebay for $49.99. Thinking of going this way and not having to mess with the shift coupler again. Has anybody tried these yet?

Yes and No,
Yes, they are great and will likely never wear out. No, because they should be made undersize then reamed to fit, the stock shaft tolerances are all over the place the bronze bushing should have a tight tolerance to make this a worth while endeavour. BTW just looking at it I'm pretty sure that is not bronze, it's brass. |
