Anyone know how to make the Gear shift less "sloppy" so i can actually tell what gear im in...

 

Doh !

what transmission ?

 

I will guess, he has a NV5600 and a CTD on propane?

Second guess, Three on the tree?

 

Now now where is the fun in actually knowing the proper information???

 

Well his gallery says its an automatic.

 

He could be talking about his Cummins Turbo Diesel 6 speed, or some other truck.

 

I don't presume anything anymore.

The OP always needs to post the most information they can about the vehicle in question in the very FIRST POST

Especially when they want vacuum diagrams

 

C6 automatic..the transmission shifts find, its just the sloppiness in the part where u have P, N, D etc.

 

You can Replace the shifter collar.

Here is one listed at NPD

If it is Non-tilt column you don't have to remove the column to do it.

My suggestion:
1) purchase the part
2) Prime it with black primer
3) paint it with Mazda paint colour "Sparkling black"

Let it sit for a few weeks for the paint to harden before installing.

Lay it on a furnace vent to aid drying.

It is identical to the original Ford paint.

 

76 bucks...wow thanks tho
