Rear gear linkage bush

Post by Delbertini »

Just fitting new bushes to my gear linkage, starting at the rear as the gearbox is still out and have taken the long rod off to clean/paint. Trial fitted the rear bush next to the gearbox and noticed the rod has either worn or is meant to be slightly thinner? When pushing the bush on the rod it's quite tight but where located in the right position so the bracket can bolt to the box it's quite lose. The rod looks a bit worn at this point and just wanted to check with those in the know if this is wear or meant to be loose, I'm sure the bush should be tight. I got a complete kit from Brickwerks who supplied two bushes for this part but both a bit loose. If it is wear any good ideas how to overcome?
