I believe the white one on the left goes there. And just use a cotter key that fits nicely.

Don't think that ones it, or any of them, do I push the rod through the hole on the linkage, put the bushing on, then pin?

Or

Put bushing on rod then through linkage hole, then pin?


Now that I look at it, it kind of seems like the bushing goes on first, but with the white bushing(far left on pic) there's no room to push it through the linkage hole, plus it fits a bit loose

Only one that makes sense is the one on the far right, but the hole on it is too small

Bushing goes in first, then rod thru the bushing. Which one fits, that the rod will fit thru?

2nd to the right, it would have to be forced in BUT, it's too long, covers pin hole

The lip on the bushing holds it in place in the hole, it should insert far enough that the 'narrow' section after the lip actually is IN the hole. (so it sorta sticks out on both sides....) There should be room to put a washer and in in there then..... Should be......

I don't think I have the correct parts...

What I'm trying to fix is the linkage that goes from the gear selector rod, to the transmission linkage, gear selector thing, not sure what it's called

Basically what happened was, I tried to put the truck in gear, but the gear selector (next to steering wheel) would just go up and down, but would not shift into gear, that's when I checked the linkage next to the tranny and found what's in the 2nd pic I posted
