CAN ANYONE EXPLAIN HOW TO REPLACE THE PLASTIC POINTER
THAT INDICATES WHAT GEAR THE TRANSMISSION IS IN? IT IS ON A 1977 F-100 RANGER XLT. 400CI ENGINE WITH A C-6 TRANS. I HAVE THE STEERING WHEEL REMOVED AND STILL CANT SEE HOW TO GET THE NEW INDICATOR INSTALLED. AM I GOING TO HAVE TO REMOVE THE RAGLINK AND SLIDE EVERYTHING UP? HELP!!!!

THANKS,
DAJUDGE51

AM I GOING TO HAVE TO REMOVE THE RAGLINK AND SLIDE EVERYTHING UP? No! That won't work at all.
D3TZ7A110A .. Shift Indicator Dial Pointer / Fits 1973/77 F100/350.

The shift collar has a rectangular slot in it.

There's a groove in the pointer that slides into that slot. You'll have to remove the upper flange to install it in the collar.

Thanks a lot. Can you tell me how to remove that upper flange or can I see how when I go back to the garage?
Thanks again!
