NP205 shifter linkage

I have a couple different NP205s, the earlier ones used a bent flat bar between the shifter and the shift rail coupler (connection made with bolts). On the later ones they have a nice little bent piece of stock that has a retaining bushing on the shift rail end and a washer/cotter pin at the other end (shifter). I am trying to locate the little retaining bushing. Any ideas? Thanks,

Jim

Re: NP205 shifter linkage

any parts bushing wise I've gotten for shift linkage is from just locating a proper size bushing. I just fixed my 205 shift lever where it mounts. I could not find a proper pivot bolt. I ended up using a bolt wrapped with a shock mount sleeve then put brass bushing around the shock sleeve. It is solid and works great. But I would like to locate a proper pivot bolt. I would like to see the bushing you are talking about, and how it is assembled. My linkage uses cotter/clevis pins for assembly. You can hear jingle bells at the right RPM from washers singing.... annoying!
