I want to R&R the shift linkage/bushings on my 86 Syncro, and am not
sure what kit to get. Does anybody know what exactly is included with
the Bus Depot "Gear Shift Linkage Kit?"
http://busdepot.com/details.jsp?partnumber=251711200
Description is a little vague: "Bushings, Flanges, Plates & Selector
Lever for Vanagon manual transmission shift linkage."
GoWesty and VanCafe have separate kits for the shifter base and
transmission linkage. If the BD kit is a hybrid of these kits, it
would seem to be a real deal.
Here are the GW / VC kits for reference:

Thanks for any advice or suggestions.
