sloppy shifter lever

My '96 has a very sloppy shifter, but has no problem goin into gear. Are the bolts to tighten the shifter under the boot, and if so how do I get to them without messing up the boot? One more thing my check engine light came on and the code reader said #1 O2 sensor bank 2. Should I go ahead and replace both of them? (I already replaced the one after the cat)

Is it an automatic transmission or a manual?? If it's automatic, this thread should help you. https://www.ford-trucks.com/forums/s...d.php?t=441929

AS for teh O2 sensor issue, if you have replaced one, they are probably all three the same age and will most likley end up all failing withing a few months of each other. If you've got the resources, yes, replace the other one as well. Its recommended that O2 sensors be replaced at regular tune-up intervals.
