Skip replacing the whole shifter cable and repair just the broken connection with the Dorman automatic transmission shift linkage clip (MPN 14908). On many Ford, Lincoln and Mercury vehicles the small linkage clip that secures the shifter cable to the shift linkage is the failure-prone piece, and this direct-replacement clip lets you address only that failed original part. It's cataloged for a wide range of applications including the 1998-2003 Ford F-150 and 2005-2023 Ford Mustang — see the "Vehicles it fits" section for the full list.

If a broken linkage clip is the reason your shifter cable won't stay connected, this clip replaces that piece.

Frequently Asked Questions
What does this Dorman automatic transmission shift linkage clip do?
It replaces the small clip that secures the shifter cable to the transmission linkage, letting you fix a broken connection without installing a complete shifter cable assembly.
Will this clip fit my vehicle?
It's made for certain Ford, Lincoln and Mercury vehicles, including the 1998-2003 Ford F-150 and 2005-2023 Ford Mustang. Check the "Vehicles it fits" section to confirm your exact year and model.
Why replace just the clip instead of the whole cable?
On many of these vehicles the clip is the part that breaks, so this direct replacement lets you address the failed original clip instead of the entire shifter cable assembly.
How do I know this clip is the problem?
Diagnose the shifter cable connection first. If a broken linkage clip is why the cable won't stay attached, this part replaces it; other issues may require additional parts.
