This may just be my imagination, but it feels like I'm find all of my gears a little farther to the left than I was last week. In particular, for second I have to nudge into the anti-reverse springs a just a bit. There also seems to be a large expanse to the right that will slip into fourth.
I haven't pulled the boots off to check the shifter bushings, but I gave a good shake at the firewall and tranny and everything seems solid. Again, this may just be my imagination. I drive the teener and my Ranger about 50:50 and either one feels odd after driving the other. Thanks |

A bad bushing would give vagueness in the shifting. It sounds to me like the shifter has "shifted".
I usually adjust the shifter to the 2nd/3rd line up against the lockout plate, then move it back away just a hair, and lock it down. James |
