Model 61 Blade bushings needed

Good Evening, I would like to replace the bushings on my model 61 blade. I need 2 of each of part numbers Y1780c, Y1781c and Y1782c. These are no longer available from Deere. Is there anyone who makes these or has available? Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks! Gordon

The seals leak around the shifter rail and new seals will not stay in place when you engage from ...

Thanks for your help Stan and Lavoy! The reverser shaft that goes in the housing, according to diagrams there looks to be two seals back to back outside of the housing that seals in oil and keeps dirt out. This is the source of my leak.
