I am rebuilding my rod change gear linkage.
Its badly worn with up to 6 thou wear in the bushings and rod.

I am pretty sure I have seen someone do a bush and seal modification here on the board

Whats my best option and materials to use for the bushing

Thanks in advance

Like other post

Give john at mini kingdom a call he has second hand rod change housings he could post you i was asking him the other day

Bernard,
You can still buy new housings in UK I think, but most s/h ones you find are probably as bad as the one you already have.
I would rebush it as I said, if the rest of the housing is OK.

I went to the seal place and they had replacement bushes in stock.

I also brought a seal to protect the bushes.

The bushes simply tapped out and its just like new.

I swapped the rod end to end to resolve the wear on the shaft

And the best bit it only costc $11.00

Good one is it a public holiday over there tomorrow for anzac day

Yep holiday today. Spent it in the garage working on the mini
