trans shift rod c6

my signal light cam broke the other day and figured i would pull it to put a better tilt columm and am having trouble re&reing the shifter rod that goes on the end of the columm mainly that plastic bushing i heat it up with a heat gun and that helps soften it up but man i have got into some weird positions trieing to reach the dam thing in behind the brake booster i thought i seen a rotundra tool to re&re the bushing/shift rod some where a few years ago am i right or just dreaming? and would any one know where new ones could be bought?

Soak it with WD40 and use slip joint pliers on it. The WD40 will make it go right in.

X2 on the slip joint pliers. It's just a matter of getting the right angle.
