Subject:Delrin for Shift Linkage Bushing?

Hi all.

Has anyone used Delrin (Delrin AF or Delrin 500AF?) to replace the
shift linkage bushing above the fuel tank on air cooled and diesel
Vanagons?

Delrin is used for the USRT Mk3 shift linkage (scroll down):

Seems to me that some type of Delrin might be a suitable material for
the 80-83.5 Vanagon shift linkage bushing above the fuel tank.

Yes? No? Input?

Neil.
