Hey boys and girls,
I decided to replace my shift bushings today because my shifter is kind of sloppy. I have done some reading here and there and saw that changing the bushings can improve shifter feel, so I figured it could only improve the situation. That's when I ran across this little problem:

Damn sideways pictures. Anyway, you can sort of make out the round area of missing epoxy. The nut is just loose there, which creates a lot of slop in the linkage. If not for the lock nut on there, I'm sure it would be long gone. My worry is that I am putting too much stress on the pivot bolt will cause it to snap.
How should I fix this?
