I just measured my bushing on the shaft and 1st and 2nd are both 2 9/16" OD and 3rd is 2 5/16" OD. So the place I ordered my 3rd gear bushing from either has the wrong size bushing or they sent me wrong one. Either way I'm dealing with some b.s. on this issue cuz the other site I got the rebuild kit from and the 1st and 2nd gear bushings, they said the 3rd gear bushing is different on the later vs earlier models transmissions. And me being the lucky guy I am, the 3rd gear bushing for my older model is on back order.....
