Another one. A few years ago I believe someone else showed that broken clip from another trans service. If I'm not mistaken it was Pete who correctly identified it as the torsion spring from the parking pawl.

I thought that looked familiar as I also remember. I think I posted a pic of it's location. That was awhile ago.

Thank you guys really appreciate your help with this. Is it something that can go awhile before being fixed?

Recently having my transmission apart, I can confirm that's exactly what that is.

That depends on how important park is to you. Does park still work? Do you always set the parking brake before getting out of the truck?

Can it be repaired/replaced from underneath via removing the pan? or does the transmission need to come out and be disassembled?
