Replacement of the shifter bushings does not appear to be very difficult or expensive. Replacing mine on my '87 RX7 is on my to do list and I plan to use this guide:

Shifter bushing = Easy
Rear wheel bearing is harder. If you don't have access to a bearing grabber and a bearing press then you may have to get it done for you.
