my shift linkage seems to be eating the nylon bushings for breakfast lunch and dinner. Has anyone run across this before? Also I am leaking gear oil throught the shift linkage attached to the case. How hard is that bushing to change?
thanks |

Bushings for the shifter are available and not expensive or hard to change. If oil is ending up dripping from teh shifter ont he tranny then it is the inner seal which is a PITA to do if you do not have a seal puller. Just collapse it gently and avoid gauling the housing. You will have to remove the whole shift console (2 nuts) so you might as well get the O-ring too. I recommend driving out the roll pin on the inner comb so you can more easily slide the shift shaft back into the housing once the new seal is seated. Doing it the other way involves a little risk of goofing the seal up.
