    I have a Truck with a Fuller 10 speed and the gear pattern is getting worn out and sloppy.. Can you buy a bushing kit for the stick or just get a new tranny?

    Most gear shift levers have an isolator/bushing which can be replaced. Sometimes the detent in the shifter tower gets worn causing the "sloppy" motion, in that case it's best to replace the shifter tower.

    Thanks for the info.. Its not a bad problem But you can pick the stick up and down and rotate it some while its in gear and I was wanting to fix it before it became a huge problem

    I just fixed my shifter this last November on my super 10!
    You need fuller part O ring K3376 isolator bushing kit K3399and new gasket for the shift tower to transmission 4303432 .
    You are just four bolts and a little elbow grease from shifter that feels like a brand new truck for less than 30 bucks!!

    My gear stick shift is getting hot while driving down the road. It happens intermittinly and the service light stays on after the truck is off. But it is off when I'm driving it. No codes just the light will come on when I'm on the high side of the gear selector or sometimes when I turn I off for about 2 hours. Any thoughts?

    There might be a nut on the end of your shift selector that needs to be tightened up. (That usually causes a hot shift selector).
