The little bolt bit that stops the gear lever spinning round

You all know the one. It bolts in from the back of the box.

Where can i get a one? There was a mod on here somwhere to sort it but i can't find it.

I did the same as Ricky but used an angle grinder and a drill.

id recomend using a bolt, and doing as the guys say.

i bought a kit from mountain goat performance, came with a new bolt, and replacment bushes for the gear stick and transfer box,

im going there on way home, do you want me to get the bolt out and get the dimensions for you to copy.

If they are correct it means i managed to find part numbers all by myself. Gonna give Suzuki a ring later on. Don't think they're open at 04:50.

My suzuki dealer didn't recognise those part numbers but have ordered me the correct parts off this diagram. About £3 i think he said.
