Tunnel throttle linkage bushing replace

[Charles Freeborn]

Time to do them. Any suggestions on sequence?
Will pull pedal cluster at the same time and re-bush.
Thanks,

If these are not the ones you are talking about and can stomach $27 for 3 pieces of plastic... replace them.

Actually you might not even find them, I only find a piece of one.

I also replace the Throttle Rod Coupling

Those are them. All three new ones in hand. Throttle coupler done already.
Thx.

Good.

Well to put the bushing in, you'll need to removed the shifter.

Since you are removing the shifter... How about a "shifter" up-grade (love to spend someone else money ).

[Charles Freeborn]

Shifter is done too - stock at least. New cup and bushing made it work like new. Maybe a WEVO one day...

Be sure to check the weld on the throttle lever.

Crocked and wobbly:



Came apart:



The pin was too short to work with:



New pin pressed and welded

Nice job on the linkage. I think mine's okay, but we'll see when I dig in there.
