I just bought 2 GMC Sonoma's

My 2001 has a 2.2L and a 5 speed. Its a good truck but the shifter is really sloppy. I have to shift carefully shift so I dont go end up in the wrong gear or shift into reverse by accident.

Is there a shifter rebuild kit?

Pull the shift lever off and check for the plastic button on the end of shift lever.
The shift lever housing/hold down has 4 bolts holding it to transmission shifting top.
You local dealer should have it and any other parts you need.
Good lucK.

The dealership here in phoenix wants $145 for the shifter and 17 for the bushing.

Is there any place where I can see what it looks like?

I would go for a new bushing.
The parts department can give you a pictutre of it or show you the bushing.

A all data sub may have some info and pictures.
