Ultramatic shift linkage
#1

Home away from home

I'm going through the transmission shift linkages and found a bearing (or bushing, it's solid) in the bellcrank that rides on a pin at the brake master cylinder PN 3.3256 that is no longer pressed into the bellcrank. The bushing was seized onto the shaft of the linkage from the column, must have spun it loose as it took me a fair amount of work to free ot from the shaft. So, anyone have an idea other than finding a new bellcrank assembly with the pressed-in bushing? Maybe I could braze it into place?

The bushing floats in the bellcrank and rotates on the pullrod. You will note that it has a spherical outer surface to allow for misalignment. It is assembled with a wave washer to allow a slight degree of "wobble" as the linkage moves.

Really, it is free to move both ways? OK, that would explain why the bellcrank doesn't seem wallowed out. The bushing was seized on the rod, and I have all the washers including the wave washer. So I guess I can reassemble it then, thanks again Ross!
