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.
