 I conclude that since the shifter rattles in 19336's 5th gear, unless I apply some pressure against it with my hand, I need to replace the bushings, etc., in the shifter mechanism.  I ordered the parts from Delta and have them in hand, so I hope my conclusion is reasonable.  Now what is the recommended process for doing the replacement? 

Do I need to remove the transmission first or can it be done through the top of the transmission tunnel? 

Is there a proper sequence of steps for this repair or can I trust my intuition?

Are there any tricks to doing this right the first time?

The center console, seats and carpeting are not yet back in the car after its body work so now is a good time to make this improvement.
