quick rack was 90 but ant realy worth it imo
alex you could buy the bushes in the linkage seperate from fords which is what i did to mine it has made it like new and the best bit is it only cost £12

its only the bushes inside that wearout over the years and the springs inside which loose there tension. also to make it better you could find a GOOD second hand bar(the one with the universal joint which goes to the g'box) as the joint will have play in it over the years.
i was gunna get a b&m shifter for mine untill i felt one in a s2 and it was rubbish the lever was all over the place but the distance to get it in gear from gear is much shorter/ quicker BUT with the sloppyness of the lever its easy to get it in the wrong gear
