Steering Column Repair: steering column, ford steering column, ford f150

Question
I have a 2001 ford f150. My gear shift will not go into park. It is a non tilt steering column.I found a bolt in the floor board when i took the lower dash panel off. Is this why it won't go into park. and where does it go.

Answer
Hi Ken:

We have recently uploaded pages and a description of how to repair and/or rebuild the shift tube of a Ford steering column.  They are broken down into step by step detailed instructions on our website. Although the example is for a different vehicle than yours, the column is identical to yours (tilt and non tilt use the same housing)

I hope these instructions help you.  If not, please contact me again for more information.
Lastly, if you need parts to repair this column simply follow the links to order on line or email us on our "Contact Us / Order Parts" page and we will get back in touch with you personally

Good luck

Doug
