Shifter linkage
I was going to replace my shift linkage that runs from the shifter down the steering wheel column a while back, but when I opened the column, I decided against it. My shifter is now so sloppy, I can't put it off. Has anyone tackled this job? Any good pointers?
Hook it, I'll pull it.

Greg, there was a thread about this a while back. Something about a pin or something need to be tightened. You might do a search on this and see if you can find it.
Sorry I couldn't be more help. Maybe some will chime in that has done this before.
Good luck.

Yeah, that worked before and I am going to check it, but the piece is aluminium and was wollering out. I had to replace the shifter a couple of years ago because the wire broke for the cruise and was too short to solder.
