Do you all know if Chrysler or anyone sells replacement linkage arms, etc., for a 3 on the tree? I'm looking to refresh mine, and already replaced the grommets for the connection to the steering column tabs. But further down where it connects to the tranny there's a lot of play, and generally am thinking if I could get a refresh kit it would be a big help to my shifting.

Thoughts, ideas, or alternatives if there are no parts would be MOST appreciated.

No, the parts aren't available new. The levers and links generally aren't wear items. Bushings and washers and clips, yes. Go through and find and replace all worn bushings, and shim the free space between the end of the bushing and the retainer clip hole with thin nylon washers. The 3-on-the-tree shifters were never especially precise, even when brand new.
