Russ, It’s been a long time since I posted on this forum (anywhere). I am getting my truck ready to sell (it’s time). I still have a problem with the column shifter hanging up in 2nd-3rd gear. I have read the Service Manual dealing with the spacing between the steering wheel and the shifter, but how doe that relate to the position of the column shifter housing? Is the a specification for the distance from the housing to the firewall? and how does that relate to the shifting and the transmission rods? I may be using incorrect terminology here on parts?? I know this is a common problem, but I have yet to hear a “final solution “.
