Shaft is 4B7298 and bushing is 5F0209. This is the bushing in the clutch lever, and shaft on the shifter housing.

Just going through changing one of these myself. Florin tractor showed the shaft in stock but not the bushing. I wound up making my own shaft and bored out the lever and shift tower to use a standard size shaft and bushing.

Also there is a little known and not shown in the parts book replacement shift tower 8F8075 that allows use of the later boot 8F8079, which is available aftermarket from Florin.

i have done this many times, just make a new shaft and bushing, you will have it done before you can even order the parts and it will be alot cheaper too!

Never could figure out why Cat used an odd ball diameter shaft and bushing there....0.889" dia. if I remember right. Easy change to 1" dia.
Used a "Nomex" bushing that does not require lube. Will see how it works out.

Yep, glad to see the Quality Control inspector is giving it a thorough going-over. I'm "sure" there was no bed-time candy bribery going on, at all! : )
