OK - here goes one more time.
1. I placed the shift lever in D - held it with weight as per factory manual.
2. I loosened linkage under truck - pulled lever on trans. all the way to the rear - then forwarded the level TWO clicks forward.
3. tightened linkage - then placed shift lever into neutral and started engine - truck was in neutral.
4. tried to shift lever to park - if I pushed hard on the shift lever it would stay in park (shift lever never showed completely on the P, but half way between R and P) for a few seconds, then jumped into reverse.
Maybe it would be easier to just buy a small anchor & chain for parking purposes. As of right now I am having my wife jump out and put a chock in front or behind the rear wheel - depending on the direction of the slope! I hope no jerk comes along and pulls the chock away!
