1986F150Six Posted February 10, 2021 Share Posted February 10, 2021 Take a look at this video and hope it is as easy as this... https://www.bing.com/videos/search?q=Repairing+column+shifter+slop+Ford+F150+1986+YouTube&docid=608031777656802337&mid=E352792657156A349F89E352792657156A349F89&view=detail&FORM=VIRE Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kramttocs Posted February 10, 2021 Share Posted February 10, 2021 Can you identify where the play is? Is the handle loose, the collar (it's riveted to the shift tube), the linkage down near the frame, etc? The video is the first time I've seen how a later model kind of works but looks like they changed quite a bit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Your column is a shaft in a tube in another tube. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
