904 Transmission tail shaft too long?

I just noticed that you are missing the plastic bushing on the pivot bracket that bolts to the trans.  You're shifter is going to have a lot of slop and you won't be able to get into the proper gear without that bushing.  I think they are still available through Chrysler and a few other places.

Wow, thanks a lot for noticing that. Hard to put everything together when it wasn't runnin even when I first got it.

I found one here but I'll also keep shopping around:

Never buy anything from Jims.  There are countless stories online of their horrible customer service.  There are plenty of good companies out there where you can spend your money.  Try Rosevillemoparts.com.  They have a forum discount as well.

R/T specialties carries those nylon bushings and many other clips/fasteners for Mopars. Good company. I've purchased quite a few things from them. See link below. Good luck with the project. Glad you got it to fit properly!!
