Help! Need some new bushes for the gear cable ends or something. Remember seeing somewhere that roller skate wheel bearings are ideal & can be pushed in using a bench clamp. If anyone has half an idea of what I'm jibber jabbering on about, could you confirm this is the case & what ones to get?

I need to get them tomorrow ideally & live round the corner from somewhere that will sell them but can't really go down there with bits of gearbox. Gracias :)

Let us know how it went, maybe the odd picture and especcially let us know how much shifing has improved, please :)

I've got nothing to compare to as last time I drove it was a manual. I'm also paying someone else to do the work so can't get any pictures either. Sorry :(
