Default I want my heel shift back!

So quick question, just bought a road king, it has the heel shift eliminator and I want to put a heel shift back on. I know there's bushings that go on the shaft with the stock setup, which I dont have anymore. Can anyone point me in the direction of what bushings I need? Thanks.

Since HD eliminated the heel shifter on 2020 models they now list a "Heel Shifter Kit" in their catalog. I think it costs $49.95 or thereabouts.

I should've added, mine is an 06. Will the kit fit older bikes?

Bought the kit and added the heal shifter to my 2020 Limited the day after I picked it up. Easy installation, and worth it IMHO.

I have a '07 I'll swap parts with you. I don't use the heel shifter and I still have the ugly shaft sticking out.

Can you take a pic of the shifter? Both of my touring bikes had heel toe, and I just removed the heel and put a cover over the nub. I don't see why someone would completely redo the shifter.
