Default shifter bushing replacement

so today i decided that i was sick and tired of my sloppy lose shifter. when i pulled out the shifter bushing i was amazed at what i found....



so that was quite interesting. i have now replaced it with a nice solid roller bushing.



aka a skateboard bearing haha.


long story short the shifter is much more stiff now.

Did you have those bearings or have to buy them?
Any snags installing them?

I think I might do mine when swapping the tranny's over.
