My shifter is getting really sloppy. I have a Corksport set of linkage bushings, but the screw that attaches the shifter to the linkage rod is so rusted that I'm fully anticipating having to cut it off and possibly cut the shifter rod to extract everything.

Other than probably having to get a new shift rod, I need to replace the screw between the shifter and linkage rod.

I searched around and found that it's a 10mm shoulder screw with M8 thread. Fair enough, but how long is the shoulder. Does anyone have one of those screws they could measure? I plan to source a stainless steel replacement, but need to know.

thanks,
