Michael,

The bushing on the lower end of the shifter is plastic. I have worn out a
couple of them. It is the same bushing on both the W58 and W59
transmissions. The Nissan parts department should know exactly what you
need and have one (or more) on the shelf.  You don't need a part number.

Richard--

While I agree that a good counterman would probably know the p/n off the
top of his head those guys are few and far between and showing up without a
part number, car serial number, application ID and birth certificate is an
invitation to a long wait.  In any case I have a couple of responses from
listers with the p/n so I hope I am covered.

No big deal ...BUT would you be willing/able to measure both free play and =
total clutch pedal travel on your wee beastie?
and do you have more info on the Nissan transmission swap?
Thanks, Jim

First, the free play and clutch pedal travel on my race car with Toyota 5
speed won't help you.  I have a Tilton 7-1/4" two plate racing clutch with
an annular hydraulic throw out bearing.

Secondly, the Nissan transmission swap in the other Healey was relatively
easy because it is still connected to the Nissan motor.  Please look again
carefully at the photo of my engine.  It's out of a Datsun 280Z .
