FD shifter bushing rebuild?
Hey Club,
Just got an MS shifter off a member. Super good price, so I'm happy with that. However, 2 of the paper gaskets are ripped, so I will have to make/buy new ones.
3 of the prongs on the wave washer are a little iffy
Here are the items I do have:
I assume I could just reuse most of what's on my stock shifter? I ordered an aluminum shifter collar that fits on the bottom of the ball. But as for everything else, I'm not so sure what I would need.
Also, how would I extract the bushing + washer above the ball? Do I have to remove the grove bushing on the side of the shifter ball?
Would this fulfill my needs?

Those parts from Atkins are correct. You'll probably also need the inner shift boot -
This keeps the whole bushing stack all together and keeps the gear oil down in the gearbox. Also keeps crap out that can chew up the bushings.
