Working on a '72 with a manual trans. Shift linkage is wonky and bushings were MIA at the column so I ordered new bushings from TBP for both ends of the linkage (steering column and trans). Appears to be the same parts for both sets (different part number but visually identical).

Tried to install and really difficult to get the rubber part of the bushing in at the column. Tore one up trying to install; bushing just seems to be too large for the hole. Then I looked at the trans, and linkage attaches differently there.
I'm thinking I have the later type of trans/bushings - I should have something like this -- https://www.tomsbroncoparts.com/pro...or-automatic-73-77-early-ford-bronco-new-each
How can I tell which shift linkage that I have?
If I have the right bushings, is there a trick to installing these?
Thanks,
Scott
