I have considered this as I have another issue I didn't mention.
I will get a metallic rattling at times and it goes away when I push the shifter forward against the gate. At first I thought it was aluminum cans rattling against each other in the passenger footwell.
I bought one bushing a while back but I don't have the slightest idea where it goes. It is a clear, round thing will several(few?) recesses around the outer rim.
I also have purchased a transmission mount that I haven't installed because there is come kind of a harmonic balancer looking thing around the drive shaft right where I need to put a wrench/socket to get to top bolt off. The balancer thing is a steel ring with a black rubber interior like what is on motor/transmission mounts where it attaches to the drive shaft. The rubber looks very cracked and I doubt it's doing what it was intended to do.
