  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 Kiwiinwgtn. |

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 |
