The bushings in the trans levers (shifter arms) were only furnished with the levers.
At the bottom of the steering column under the hood are the two manual control selector levers that the shift rods from the trans attach to.

Sorry for hijacking this thread but there appears to be good info here. I have a 67 F100 with a 3 speed column shift. I have some difficulty downshifting. Hard to go from 3 to 2 and 2 to 1. I was wondering if the bushing/insulator may be the problem as well. In the diagram, posted in #4 post, what is the illustration part number for the
C5TZ-7343-A part?
Sam no problem, first I would put some chock blocks in the front and back of a wheel, then put the shifter in neutral ,look under the hood and look at your shifter linkage and see if the rubber bushings are all deterioriated if so those bushings are bad.Also look at the bushings on the transmission
Next I would look and see how much slack or slop is in the arms itself on the bottom
of the shift column under the hood if it is a lot of slop there you are going to have
to replace those arms and the plastic wear pads. Not an easy quick job but can be
done with much patience. I didn't know until last summer that you can replace
them without pulling the steering column out. I guess I learned by the school of
hard knocks Good Luck
Another thing to check are the retainer clips at both ends of the linkage. #379620-S on Bill's diagram. If those are wrong and loose fitting it can cause shifting problems.
There were no bushings on the transmission arms on ours. I welded the holes in the transmission arms and redrilled them to the correct size. Then I welded the wear on the ends of the linkage and hand filed them to fit into the newly drilled holes. They are nice and tight now. You could also drill them a bit larger and use the same bushings sold for the clutch pedal rod. These rods are all the same size.
Also make sure you adjust the linkage so the shift arms on the bottom of the column are lined up when the trans is in neutral. I had my son sit in the truck and run it through the shift pattern and kept adjusting until it was nice and smooth.
Looking for similar parts for my 55 f-100, with three on the tree.
The two shifter levers at the bottom of shifter shaft are held in place by two pieces. The end of the shifter shaft sits in the bottom piece. The shifter shaft runs through the top piece That top piece seems to have a bushing that the shifter shaft goes through. On illustration 70.3 that you posted in this thread, it looks like 702 or 703 might be it.
Cannot find it anywhere. Any suggestions? Correct name and/or number for that part?
