Went to replace my firewall shift bushing today ('74) with the AA "replacement" R91442422400 O.E.M. SHIFT SLEEVE / AKA FIREWALL BUSHING

Funny thing is, the two pieces seem to be much different sizes - the new replacement being bigger

The last pic show best how the ID of the original bushing is about 3/16" smaller than the replacement (original 13/16" ID, replacement 1" ID).

AA's site lists 4 different looking parts for with the same part number.

Pelican lists 3 variants of the 914424224: -00 M260 (OEM for the 1.7L, 3 req'd per car), -02 M737 (Hamburg Rear Shift Rod Bushing) and -03 M260 (OEM 2.0L Firewall Shift Bushing).

Looks like I need the -03 M260 and that I have an -00 M260??

Tail shifters , up till 73, have a larger hole in the firewall where the bushing goes.

So, there are three possible bushings he stocks.

Stock tail shifter bushing
Side shifter bushing 73 onwards
Conversion bushing to put a side shifter linkage in an early body...

That's a conversion bushing. It's used to convert an early tailshifter car to the later sideshifter setup.

So the one I want to order today from Pelican (with some other things) is the 914424224-03 M260, correct?

Just ordered one the other day for a 72 with a side shift conversion. Cost is around $19.00 with shipping. They sell a complete kit of all of the bushings, " Super Kit" for @ $40.00.

Here are the tailshift (914 424 224 00) and sideshift (914 424 224 03) firewall bushings. I think you need the 03. If you haven't already ordered it from Pelican PM me a shipping address and I will send you the one in this pic.
