If your going to replace the plastic nylon linkage
bushings read below.
I have a big input Toploader / Hurst Comp setup.
Nylon bushings will "smear" with time and
aggressive driving. Alignment issues follow.
Hurst Pit Pak metal bushings are made from
sintered (powdered) metal and can crack.
Flange is smaller then what's on nylon bushing
because of material used.
The bushings from 5speeds.com are tool steel
designed by Paul Cangialosi.
These are dimensionally
identical to the Hurst nylon bushings.
My shifter is way smoother now with Paul's bushings
and gear changes are effortless. I can power row
every gear without hesitation!! Paul also redesigned
the bushing retention clips to eliminate falling out.
Been on the car now (4) season without issue.
Bushings + retention pins kit = $20.

Paul describes the feature/function/benefit of
tool steel bushings in this Youtube video.
Very enlightening. Start at 1:30 mark.
