2001 F-350 super duty crew cab, the screws that hold the transmission shifter cable plate to the steering column shift tube, backed out of their holes. As the company mechanic I experienced the same problem previously on a different truck. I repaired the problem the same way, lowering the steering column, installing longer bolts with thread lock compound on the threads, added a nyloc nut on the end of the bolt.

2001 F-350 super crew, the screws that connect the column shifter tube to the plate that the shifter cable connects to, backed out of their holes. This action caused an improper reading, and selection of transmission gear. The vehicle was put into park, and did not make it past reverse. The truck was equipped with an aftermarket back up alarm, which alerted the driver, and avoided a dangerous situation. The vehicle was brought to me (the company mechanic) for repair. I dropped the steering column, threaded longer bolts in the factory holes with loctite, tightened bolts then added a nyloc nut on the back side.

Transfer case shifting fork wore out. Truck had only been in four wheel drive about a dozen times all in snow conditions on major hiways. No offroading at all. Had to replace the shifting fork, a planetary gear an a imput shaft. This was the only way Ford would sell the repacement parts. Ford has made a design change on the shifting fork.
