Im still lost as to what the shift tower is exactly. This post makes it sound like it is the shift cable itself. Ive also heard it is actually on the tranny, my idea of a shift tower is what my shifter sits in. I just ordered a new shift linkage from Ford with my "Im not an employee but I get employee discount" deal, and it looks about the same, but the bushing that connects to the shifter itself actually has a small push pin style thing that looks like it will lock the ball in and push the ball out a lot easier. Maybe Im wrong and that isn't what it is for, but my stock 00' bushing is just a straight through design where I can feel the ball on the left side when I put it in. The new one has a button there
