Yes, if you have the nylon bushings I would change them although it won't make a world of difference unless the nylon ones are real worn. To adjust a Hurst shifter, disconnect the rods, preferably at the shifter with the transmission in neutral. Keep all of the shifter levers in neutral position and search out the hole in the side of the shifter case for inserting a gage pin. I use the largest allen wrench I have that will fit - but anything will work that fits pretty snug. Wiggle it and the shifter arms to get it through all the shifter levers and into the hole on the opposite side of the case. Then with all the transmission shift levers in neutral (hope you started out that way - it's easier) adjust the length of each rod to where it will slip perfectly back into the lever it was disconnected from. It should shift fine after that.
