When the shift mechanism is functioning nominally there should be virtually no play at all between the crossshaft ( that holds all the shift "keys") and the mount.

It's been awhile since I dug into mine. I have a Haynes manual at home, so if you need further guidance, let me know and I will scan a page this weekend.

Thanks for the picture. I think I know where the play is coming from now. the top hat bushing is non existent . seems like a easy fix if thats the only thing wrong. I'll get on it this weekend and post results.
