Thanks Scott. Yah I'm not certain the kit contains all the correct parts. The "Center shift rod bushing" that's in my Vanagon currently works. Just thought I'd pop in a new one while gas tank is out. I'll lube it up, leave it in, and wait until I have to do the crossover lines again. Like in more than several years I hope! In the meantime, I'll order a kit from an actual Vanagon vendor that sells a kit with *all* the right parts. Thanks, Neil.
