    Loose shifter - looking for guidance on this

    '91 LTD Country Squire, car won't shift into park and there's a ton of slop in the shifter. This is one of the spring projects when I take it out of storage.

    Pretty sure it's just a loose shift tube, or bushings, but not 1000% sure. I know the two T30 bolts all the way at the bottom of the column are tight (because I tightened them last year).
