A few years ago I had purchasing order me in a bag of low speed polymer flange bearing (bushing) to repair my shifter linkage. The ones I asked of were speced for operating in an abrasive enviroment. I was stripping down the old car of all usable parts and pulled the shifter out I just measured the bushing and there was no wear or distortion that I could measure after 3 years of daily uses all years round. I bought a bag of 50 3 years ago at less that $.65 each. I had figured that I would need to replace them every few years like the bronze bushings but it looks like they will out last the steel houing the bushing goes in and the pivot bolts.

What remaining bushing? I used 18 myself in my 3 cars plus 6 in reserve for the ZX2. I gave 10 to friends. Since I ordered them through the company with our inventory# and everything. The rest went to the stock room. I appears that 14 of the remaining 16 are in the Atlanta, GA area being used on a conveyor table rolled in place of bronze bushings.
