Hi,

I'm looking for a conversion bushing for my 1970 which has a side shift gearbox.

I know Pelican sell them for $16 BUT they want $36 to ship to the UK!!!

Does anyone know who else supplies them that might not charge the earth to ship?

Many thanks
Stuart

performance products makes them everyone including us sells them.
Performance products is in Florida now so it should be cheaper to ship it across the pond.

Thanks for the responses - I have made enquiries...

Since posting this though i have been advised that it might be best to source a piece of a post '72 firewall with the side shift bushing mounting bit in it.

i am in the process of replacing my firewall and the panel i'm putting in is for later cars.

is this a sensible option? allows me to use the later shifter boot?

and if it is a good idea does anyone have that bit of metal off a car they are breaking?
