I'm not at a stage to remove mine due to needing the car, but if anyone can either make up a drawing of one, or better yet send me the parts as a loan, I would certainly try to make one out of Nylatron or similar and see where we get to.

The company looks like it’s in Florida.

Had anyone got any tip for changing the small square shift Bush?

I’ve got one and a set of instructions with photos but coming in through the engine bay it’s all on the wrong side. I’ve not got the confidence to remove the small circlip blind. I guess it’s best done up on a ramp with the N/S rear wheel off?

If it should help here is a 66k miles bush and a brand new nylon one in comparison:

The pictures will come up bigger if you click on them.
If you can't see photos let me know - i'm using new hosting with Imagebam, so I might be making a mess of it.

Could you write the dimensions that you have taken.
First I cannot open the bigger photos and then in several years time when the photos will not be hosted anymore the information will be lost...
