My shift cable likes to pop off the neutral safety switch arm periodically so I thought to just replace the bushing but can't seem to find the bushing. I can only find the entire shift cable or a little "repair kit" for $30. I prefer OEM parts but I searched Dorman's website and it doesn't seem like they make it for pre-2000 transmissions unless they have it mislabeled. I've tried finding a parts diagram to see if I could pull the GM part number but I haven't been able to find the right diagram yet. The dealership only sells the entire shift cable, which aside from costing 10x as much as the bushing, is a fairly big job involving removing the seat and taking apart a section of the dash.

Looking for bushing for this cable

If a sponsor sells shift cable bushings or if someone has some jury-rigged ideas on keeping it from falling off, please let me know.

Or if somebody has a spare bushing and would like to sell it.

EDIT: It's for a '96 Chevy C1500 5.7L truck and is a column shifter, not a floor shifter

 

Any idea what kinda vehicle you're working on?
It might help those who want to help, help.
I tried a few different vehicles. You're on a site called LS1tech and LS1's didn't exist in 1996 so it's a hard guess.

 

It's a '96 Chevy C1500 5.7L truck. I know I drive something different than most of the racers but the transmission is the same 4l60e.

$14.95
SKU# T74498-1
SHIFT CABLE REPAIR CLIP for 4L60E, 4L65E, 4L70E and FORD CD4E Vehicles with Floor Shifters. See Information Sheet to insure this will fit your shift cable.

 

Thank you, 2ToeRacing, but their information sheet says it is for floor shifters only and mine is a column shifter. I've edited my original post to reflect this.

However, they sell multiple grommets and I'm looking through their list to see if any would be compatible.

 

Bushings for older jeep wranglers work perfect. And they are cheap.
