i am looking for a bushing that is a bit more robust than a stock bushing....
any one have any solutions..... i would love to tighten up my shifting and belive that cleaning up the play in the bar should do the trick.. is it posible to build a bushing out of lubricated brass and bolt it on? or is the side play in the shift bar a necessary thing? any ideas welcome........ |

Since the firewall bushing is nylon and compliant enough to press into the boss, a metal bushing would need something to hold it in place.
My .02 is that you could be making a solution for a problem that isn't that bad. The new plastic bushings in the firewall have always worked fine for me. |
