Hello all, I have a '90 F150 with the Mazda M5OD trans. I need a part for it because it worked itself loose and is now gone. In the diagram, it is number 115 and what it does is hold the shifter on the stud and since it is gone, my shifter just spins loosely on the stud and it is nearly impossible to drive. I've tried to find this part, but I cant find it anywhere and I don't know what it is called. Anyone know where I can get one or what it is even called?

 

it looks pretty damned important. cant go to a junkyard and pull one?

 

just drill the hole out and nut and bolt it..

 

I could go to a junkyard but I need the part by Thursday cause I gotta drive back home (Im in college) Friday and I don't really have time to go to the junkyard during the week cause of classes and it getting dark early. I can't dirll it out becuase it is actually a wedge type thing that clamps the shifter in place and the nut holds it on.

 

Have you been to the Ford dealer?

 

No I havnt made it to the dealer yet. I have to find a ride there but that's probably my best shot. I just hope they can get it to me by the end of the week.

 

Have you called the parts department? I'd do that before trying to find a ride over there.

 

That's a good idea. I just wish I knew what to call the part for when I call them.

 

I would think they should have the same diagram that you posted.
