Hi everyone!
Do any of you have slop in the gear selector? The trans is in D1 in both of the first two pictures. Sorry it's hard to get shots that show very well what's going on at the base of the column. The modified arm is pushing and pulling on a cable. I put a new detent plate in hoping it would fix the problem but that didn't happen. I was not having an issue with slipping out of Park but thought it couldn't hurt to put a new and improved part in there. I can tell the difference in how securely it goes to and stays in Park, and there isn't much slop in L, but in between I can move the stalk back and forth a good bit. I can select gears and I feel the click from position to position but there is lots of wiggle room. Though I have an Aod and had to shorten the column for the replacement steering box, and modify the arm (part 7302 in the picture:http://www.squarebirds.org/picture_g...annyColumn.pdf) to get my cable hooked up, I think the problem may be play in that arm. How would I go about eliminating the lateral movement there? A good thing is that the gears match up-D1 lines up with Drive and D2 lines up with Overdrive. Peace, Rick
