I recently purchased and installed a B&M Hammer shifter. The install went well, but I cant seem to get it to go completely into park. At first It wouldnt go into park at all (the reverse lights would come on when the shifter was in Park) and the manual said to get a new cable from ford. I purchased a new one from ford and now when the shifter is in park, the reverse lights are out, but the tranny must not be in park all of the way so it wont start. I crawled under the car and adjusted the cable to the tranny as directed by B&M but still nothing. If I push on the cable where it is attached to the tranny, the car will go into park far enough to start it, but once I run through the gears I get back to square one.
I appreciate any and all help or suggestions on this matter!!
