Hmm I didn't specify that this is a floorboard setup. The H/T shifter doesn't have any splines. smooth pivot with a brass bushing, washer and retainer bolt. the pivot seems to be worn so I am looking at (easiest) and outside fix of soft washers (2 with a teflon washer in between?) or bearings OR (more difficult) having a thicker bushing machined.

Maybe this helps. The shifter shaft has a black plastic collar on the opposite end from the splines. Cant tell if it acts as a bushing or as a way to hold sideways position. I dont have any position problem with it.

SO it seems the clutch is behaving now. I put about 100 miles on it and then re adjusted for the slack. seems okay now.
The floppy shifter is buggin me. I used new pins on the rods and connectors and front to back it is pretty good. but side to side, the heel toe shifter flops pretty bad. any bushings, washers, bearings I can put in there to tighten it up?

I've had sucess rebushing the H/T shifter on my LAPD with "standard" bronze bushings. That lasts about a decade. Remember to lube them. If you don't have a fitting you might consider installing one.
