GMT800 Linear Shift Assembly Bushing Dimensions

[swartlkk]

First post here, but I am very active on other forums (although work has taken much more of my time lately so I haven't been as active)...

Anyway, I found a how-to here that has the cure to the sloppy shifter and plan on fixing it by machining a brass bushing to replace the crappy nylon one GM used. I'd like to take things apart once and thought that someone might have the dimensions off of the original bushing or of the pin/bore. If I have to pull it apart more than once so be it. I may see what some of the U-pull-it yards have that I could pull the part out of if I cannot find the dimensions elsewhere.

The How-To is linked to below:
Cheap wobbly auto trans shift lever fix

I'll definitely report back with the dimensions & a drawing of the part I plan to machine once I get everything figured out. I am an engineer after all!

Thanks in advance!

Pulled it all apart today. The bushing didn't look near as bad as the how-to linked to above, but it was quite sloppy. I took the measurements and put it all back together.

Here they are for those that have access to a lathe & can turn down some brass:


I didn't take any pictures of that phase of the process, but I will definitely take some when I do it again to install the new brass bushing.
