Who carries the bronze replacement bushing kit for the shift console? The only place I've found it is Patrick Motorsports and they want almost $20 to ship the $25 part.

thanks!

They are made out of bronze, if I recall correctly. I've always used these with no issues, almost as if they are indestructible.

I think I have an extra one, something I double ordered when I did my /6 conversion.

I believe there was an eBay seller, but I didn't find any......

Good info ,not made of brass for sure,the ebay seller has them no more or the last time I checked,good part and have had no problems,the original part is not a tight fit for no other reason than you can't fit it otherwise.
These bushes are what in the old days they called an oilite bush which is bronze and other materials impregnated with oil so self lubricating hence little wear,not sure about the AA reply (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif) ,improved my shift for sure.
