Default Loose manual shifter

I tried using the search option and could not find an answer. I have a 1992 Camry with a manual transmission and when it is in gear the shift lever has a lot of slack. I'm pretty sure it is a bushing but can't find one anywhere does anyone know how to fix this? Tia

Best bet for is a dealer as Dirty Hands states.

The shifter uses two push/pull cable.

I agree with Dirty and Toyomho.
You may also have a friend jiggle the shifter (car off and parking brake on) while you check the linkage where it connects to the tranny. I doubt this is where the slack is but I think it would be easier to change any worn parts here than at the actual shifter, there's lots of little bushing in the unit!
