Cut about 90% of the tube end of an old firewall insulation nail. Saving on the large cap end and maybe an 1/8" of the tube portion.
Works perfect and is what I use on everyone I do

Picture I took yesterday at Mecum Indy from an 11,000 mi unrestored FK5 Hemi Cuda. Looks like this one is white/translucent plastic.

Old thread here, but I thought I would comment for the good of the moparts community.

I ran into the same issue with the bushing in my parking brake release mechanism. Just wanted to say that the exact bushing is readily available under the description "nylon shoulder washer". I bought 40 pcs from Granger for $5.77. It can be had here: 4DCJ9 Shoulder Washer

It does require the release pull linkage to be removed at the rivet. The shoulder washer does have enough clearance to slide over the release linkage bends. See photo for new shoulder washer niext to the original and the release linkage in the background.



Cheers.

Only have ever seen white on e-bodies. Black could be earlier or other models. I doubt chrysler worried about the color.

Made my own.
