shifter linkage - '94 850 5 speed

[ron.dame]

Since I've had this car, the shifter has never really had a good
positive shift feel to it, but now reverse is getting more difficult
to get. I suspect some bushings may be soft or worn, which ones are
most likely to result in a sloppy shifter?

Thanks
Ron

Odd hick-ups on the servers, I had no messages from the Volvo NG in
two days...So I re-post assuming others did not get it as well, and
apologize to those who've already seen the post.
