Manual Ford

How do I tighten Ford Escape manual trans linkage?
This is a 4 cyl. 5-speed '01 Escape with about 130k miles on it. It runs great, but the shifter linkage has gotten mighty sloppy. Is this easily repaired? Could I do it myself? I haven't had a look at it yet -- thought I'd check here first.
You may have to have a set of Rhino ramps and safety jack stands to be able to work under the car. But have a friend run through the gears while the car's parked and the hood is open so you can see the shift linkages move. At every connection point there should be nylon bushings that wear out and need replacing. You might need to remove a cotter pin to remove a bushing.
Bushings - Shifter Rod - 4pc Set
An easy fix for the loose buzzy shifter blues... change out those old cracked or worn shift rod bushings, a must have when doing any changeout of the shifter handle. Contains 4 pcs to replace both ends of the shift rod. Fits all shifters (stock and aftermarket): 2001-2005 Ford Escape 2WD 1986-2002 Ford Escort 1998-2003 Ford ZX2 1986-1989 Mazda 323 / Protege 1992-1995 Mazda MX3 1991-1994 Mercury Capri 1987-1999 Mercury Tracer
