Gear bushings? AE112

[Bluebeast]

Sup everyone,

Does anyone have a source for gear bushings for a 98' ae112, I'm trying to get the play out of my knob?

Thanks yall

Which bushings?  The ones on the linkages on the gearbox, or the ones on the end of the cables under the shifter?

Ideally all of them, but my main current concern it the one that holds the shifter ball.

Thanks Hiro, I should have known you'd reply 😉

I don't think the shifter end of the cable is really "serviceable", you can get solid brass bushings for the gearbox end from Speedsource etc (or do the classic skateboard bearing hack) but if the shifter ends are really flogged out it might be a case of a new shifter cable (or shift arm if it's the ball on the shifter that is worn rather than the cup on the cable).  Normally the shifter end it is the cradle bushes that you replace to try and firm things up.

 

Is it an all-round "looseness" or limited to front/back or side-to-side (which might indicate a particular linkage bush)?
