Question
Hello my 80'Eldorado gear column is very loose. When shifting from park to drive i notice o lot of play,The shift should b tight. Any way to adjust this?Or will i have to replace a part?Any advice is appreciated

Answer
Hello,

Very common problem. Its loose because someone has been hanging on the column to get in.


Junkyard columns will have the same results. Column must be rebuilt by a professial. Eveey day mechanic will just screw it up. It may be damn near impossible to even find a dealer capable since t&t has not been around for 21 years.

I no longer rebuild them, but my formee employee does.
