LIGHT TRUCK 1985-86 F150-350
Figure 9 - Shift Tower/Shift Gate:
A new transmission gear shift housing (7222) and a new "spring-loaded" design 1st/2nd gear shift gate assembly (7279) became effective on transmissions built after November 20, 1984. The revisions in the shift gate are designed to retain the shift lever in the 3rd/4th gear shift mode and make transmission shifting into all gears smoother. See Figure 9.
Because of a required casting change to the gear shift housing, to accomodate the new spring-loaded shift gate, interchangeability between the old and new design gear shift housing is affected. The old design gear shift housing can only be used with the old design 1st/2nd gear shift gate on transmissions built before November 2O, 1984.The new design gear shift housing (7222) can be used with either the old design or new design spring-loaded lst/2nd gear shift gate (7222) and can be used on transmissions built both before and after November 20, 1984.
