Re: 1940 ford column shift repair bushing
Been looking at the same well worn bushing material as well as the rubber lined gromets for the shift arms. Many of the bushings are worn to the ID of the bracket leaving only the remains of the bushing in the groove. It's reasonable to expect that some felt ring, well oiled could work. I may try making my own using arch punches of two sizes. Another try may be a lubricated polyester sash cord laid into the groove, held in place by the shift tube. Good Luck Skid! Fred A
