5-speed shifter is loose in gear

1992 Ford F150 Nite 4x4 302 v8 5-speed

I can get into gear, but once its in gear it feels like neutral. Just has alot of play. Any thoughts? The bolt under the boot help any if its tightened?

Sounds like you need the m50d shifter bushing repair kit!!!

Pretty easy just pull carpet back take of inspection cover remove shifter (install bolt on otherside and tighten. Once this is done take off the 3 torx bolts on top of shifter cover and inspect your bushings! If they are gone (mine were) let us know I or someone else can help with the install
