@Archie :
My shift rod looks the same. Powder coating worn off and maybe some metal, too. I wouldn´t worry too much, unless it is really out of round. Get someone with a lathe to machine a new Nylon bushing that fits snug. Job done. Some clearance seems to be necessary anyways. I replaced all bushings on my tailshifter with good-fit selfmade ones. Huge difference in shifting! No need to convert to side shifter. The bushing in the rear firewall is somewhat a pita to get in (cut grooves like a crown to be able to press it in). Well worth the effort.

Thank you! I shouldn't concern myself with the aftermarket bonze bushings, then? |
