Trans Shift Rod Bushing - '69 H/O

Looking for the bushing shown in the attached photo. I've tried a few sources (Fusick, Supercars U, Summit) but haven't found it. I'm perhaps looking in the wrong places.
Thanks.

You probably won't need the screws. Scroll down to the page bottom for more choices.

Check with inline tube I think they have the correct bushing as well as the grommet the bushing rides in.

Tom, what you are looking for is probably referred to as the "back drive" linkage bushing at the steering column. The shifter itself does not use a bushing - it is a cable that attaches directly to the tranny.

Yes it is a back drive rod. what it does is push up the "tab" on the steeriing column and allows the transmission to be locked and not move out of park. 1969 is 1st year with locking steering column.

It's been awhile, but I am pretty sure I was able to get the bushing, washer and clip from Year One

even though it doesn't say 1969.

Thanks to all who've posted. I was able to find the pieces at Inline Tube.
Fred, your description is exactly correct, per my research and conversation with IT technician.

I’m pretty sure that’s the same bushing as used in column shift cars? If so I would think it would be a pretty common part.
