Default 940 wagon slips from park to reverse at idle

Hi,
My 94 940 wagon has the dangerous habit of dropping out of park and into reverse if it is parked at idle. I'm guessing the shifter linkage needs adjusting. Is there a rebuild kit I can get with all the necessary replacement bushings,rods,.etc.; and will that solve the problem? Or could there be another cause?
Thanks.

Check the bushings on the control rod - we have these and they are cheap. Is the **** locked in place in part when it does this?

I attached a exploded view for you.
