ZFS650 shifter becomes sloppy in 5th gear
I have Ford F350 1999 speed 7.3LQuestion: I hope you can tell me if the problem that I have is critical or can wait. The transmission shifts easily in all gears, but when in overdrive, shifter becomes sloppy. when accelerating or decelerating, shifter will move about an inch or so at the top of the shifter. Transmission is a 6 speed. Truck has about 93,000 miles on it.Answer:We would assume it is a combination of problems… The ZF 6 speeds are know for OD issues with gear wear, syncro wear and fork wear.
