new here - two questions

Hi everyone. I am new to this site. Glad I found it.

Two questions. First the easy one. I hope. I have a 96 F150. The interior driver side door handle broke off. How do I replace it? Do I need to remove the door panel? If I do, how?

Second, It is a manual 5 speed, 4.9 six. I have some trouble getting it in 1st or 2nd gear. Sometimes other gears. I have to jam it in. It runs fine once engaged and the clutch engages fine. I have checked the fluid levels and they are good. I have both the slave and master cylinders replaced.

Thanks for any help I can get.

First and foremost, welcome to f150online.com!

Secondly, you're going to get a better response by posting your engine/transmission question in their respective forum.

As for your door handle, I believe you do have to remove the panel to get to that handle assembly. Also, I may suggest that you check out your local salvage yards for a handle... it'll certainly be cheaper than going through the stealership!
