So. On our way back from Maine on Sunday, after about 3 hours of travel I pulled into a grocery store parking lot.
Got in parking spot, put in park. and... the truck kept moving.
Ooops...
Pulled gear shift down... and man, that feels odd. Wow, lots of slop. Put back in park, but indicator isn't SHOWING in park.
Put on parking brake, went in store, came back out and played with it. Of course, had to get in neutral to start. What a pita.
Couple of hours later my girlfriend asked if we were gonna need to take it in.
"Well", I replied. Not til I research on Explorer Forum.
Which I did.
Today, I checked. One screw had fallen out, the other very loose. I had to juggle shifter around to get second screw in, but after I did. Tightened up very snugly.
Shifted PERFECTLY. Perhaps even a little more crisp than I was used to experiencing.
Took a little longer as it was pita, space was tight, had to get the right combination of tools out of my small set.
But, again. Thank you, Explorer Forum. Sincerely.
