Hurst pit pack doesn't fit hurst shifter!?

Not sure what timeframe this started, but aftermarket sold Hurst shifters came with plastic bushings. They offered the pit pack with new bronse bushings and clips as an upgrade for worn plastic bushings.

I have first hand experience with this. In 1989 I converted a 69 dodge charger to 440 and 4 speed. I bought the Hurst shifter for my application 1969 B body from Summit Racing. It came with white plastic bushings. I went to my local speed shop and bought a Hurst packaged bronse bushing improver kit for it.

The factory installed hurst shifter and linkages for my current A body project were never drilled for any bushings, the rods fit the levers and tabs with a slip fit that was steel on steel, no bushings. Over time that wears out. Theres multiple ways to fix it including what I have seen people do with steel rod and heim joints. Not sure how this info helps you. Brewers performance may be able to help you further.
