These are much butter than stock plastic/nylon bushings. They take up considerably more slack. That's not to say they are as tight as a Banke shifter/brake, but better than stock.

Not that I know of.
American-torque was the ebay seller contact them they may have some.
Or bring your shifter and bolt to a good hardware store they might have them

I have used them and when they are new they are good but after a few thousand miles are no better than the nylon bushings

It would be better to take bearing bronce or
oillite bushings instead of brass.
Would last longer.Or install needle bearings.
Lucky the one who owns a lathe.
