Shift pedal fell off! Where to find part?

[paladinew]

Good evening Gentlemen,

I was riding to work the other day and as I was exiting the freeway I started to down****- or was about to. I tried to shift and noticed that there was nothing there!! I looked down and sure enough the shift pedal was dangling in the wind. Needless to say it was a fun experience keeping the bike in top gear while starting from a dead stop at several red lights.

I was able to find a replacement bolt from the hardware store, but I'm still missing the metal sleeve or spacer that the bolt slides through. I've attached a picture of what I'm looking for. Does anyone know the exact dimensions of this part or where I can buy it? I'd prefer to not purchase and entire shifter kit since I have everything else.

Anyhow, thanks for the help!!

The same hardware store should have it. You might need to cut the tubing to length.

Or SPHDonline.com

item you have circled in red is called "pivot bolt sleeve". part # N0599.02A8A available thru any dealer.
NOTE: if your pair of item #22 is missing you'll also need them. bolt/sleeve will NOT function without them. see schematic.

@Paladinew: My shifter pivot bolt unraveled on me twice, red Loctite is needed. Before you reinstall the bolt, take some red Loctite, dab it on a fine pointed brush, and coat the inside threads where the pivot bolt resides.

Red Loctite, On clean threads.:up:

I forgot to mention its a standard length and diameter to be able to replace the stock bolt and sleeve assembly with just a shouldered bolt. I found the right bolt at a True Value hardware store.
