Linkage issues...

<x-flowed>Hey all -

	I got in my car last night to leave work, pulled out of the 
parking lot and noticed my shifter had a ton of play in it, which it 
didn't on the way to work. Like, 2-3 inches of play when it is in 
gear, and it also pops out of gear if you bump it. It also clicks 
pretty loudly when moving it around. It's doing well for tranny 
fluid, but I'll double check it when I get home tonight. I'm thinking 
the bushings might be toasted, in which case it would be a fine time 
to put in the short shift that has been sitting on my bench for a 
couple months. Anyone have this problem before so I know what to look 
for when I'm working on it?
