    Thx, I will look into those. that's all I found when I searched the forum also. I was hoping for factory replacements but Ill prob just make some if the hinge pin bushings don't work out.

    Didn´t You buy that blue A 100 on blocks?
    Dump question: What bushings do You mean? I took apart the complete shifter and the linkages! The only bushing I can remember was on the lower end of the Shift control.
    Can You post some pics?

    Yes, I own the blue 66. I also have a build thread in the members forum as well. Back on topic, it is the bushings at the linkages at the transmission. There are 2.
