PITA. now i think i know whats up with it, just needs to clean the cable housing and free up some linkages. but i cant get the top cover of the steering coloumn off, the ignition is in the way! is there a special tool for this? or am i just retarded?? i know some of you guys have owned fords or do own them out there. dont be ashamed of urself!! need some help!! thanks

Won't go in park in the transmission, or the gear slector shows it's not in park? Two different problems with two different answers.

right on, somebody with a real reply.

i was stupid in explaining whats goin, i should have said i already took the linkage off at the tranny. it goes into park. i pulled the tumbler out, took everything all apart. i think its the cable is reaaaaaaaally retarded-ly stiff. but i cant get the stupid thing out, god i hate workin on fords. i found some parts blow-ups but no real explanation on how to get that whole cable assembly out...
