Brass Bushing for Shift Linkage

My car saw its first shakedown day yesterday and by the end of the day was not shifting well.
I have a side shifter with the brass bushing in the rear of the linkage. Dave Darling has talked about it before but Pelican parts does not appear to carry them.
I googled the part and also went through all the normal suppliers I know of and couldn't find it.
Anybody know where I can get one? Mine has way too much play in it.
The G prod Porsche turned out to be much quicker than I expected. I tested at Buttonwillow and managed to run with several of the F prod cars without too much problem. They were a tad faster on the 4650 foot front straight but slower everywhere else including the short straights where I got off the corners better.
Bring on the new season, Can't wait
Randy

If you can't find a brass bushing, try what I do. I use a stock bushing with several small wire ties through the hole and tighten them after everything is adjusted and they take all the slop out. They last for about a year which gets me to the winter overhaul for next race season time.

Patrick Motor Sports sells the rear metal bushing. Part Number
PMP 914 901 SSBB $38.00 plus shipping. They also sell s bearing to replace the plastic bushing at the firewall. The OD of the bushing is over-sized and you will have to machine the aluminum casting first. This is a good thing as most of the aluminum castings have a worn out hole in them.
