    Scoots,
    How I installed was with the shift shaft just in place with the O-ring & bushing placed on the shift shaft. I slid the O-ring down to the cavity & bottomed out. Next slid the bushing into place & using a small punch tap around the bushing to seat it in place.
    Next check for firmness on the O-ring moving the shaft up & down. This way no chuncks of rubber are removed & get a tight fit with the O-ring
