What exactly is your problem?
If, perchance, you are referring to the link underneath the vehicle, and the squeak is driving you mad, you don't really need a new bushing.
I pulled mine all apart, took it to a wire brush bench grinder, took off all the rust, slathered it in lube/grease, and put it all back together. Shifting is easier, and doesn't squeak. :)
Now with Moderator power!
