Mine works but is very floppy and lose. | | | | | Joined: Sep 2009 Posts: 45 New Guy | | New Guy Joined: Sep 2009 Posts: 45 | There's a lot of info in this forum about this issue. Use the search engine and you'll find the discussions. If you have trouble, see the section on how to use the search engine properly...it really helped me to target specifics. | | | | | Joined: Jan 2004 Posts: 188 Shop Shark | | Shop Shark Joined: Jan 2004 Posts: 188 | I've tried "column shift", "column shifter", etc. Haven't done well on the search so far.

Took mine off, and sent it in to Jim Carters to be rebuilt. Not too expensive, as I recall. | | | | | Joined: Apr 2006 Posts: 136 Shop Shark | | Shop Shark Joined: Apr 2006 Posts: 136 | Well heck, you can just walk it over to Jim C., beins your right next to him. Wish I lived closer, I'd be in his store all the time. | | | | | Joined: Jan 2004 Posts: 188 Shop Shark | | Shop Shark Joined: Jan 2004 Posts: 188 | I know Jim, really like him, Carter's is about 40 miles from here, about 4 miles to LMC and about 15 miles to Classic Parts. I'm very lucky to live this close to all of them. I go to all these places every few months, I can't stay away, I'm the one paying their electric bills. As it turns out, I've got a spare shift box that looked very good inside when I took the cover off, I think I'll just swap it out. My old truck has had lots of hard life, I just can't give up and let it go. Don | | |
