Move each gear selection cleanly from the shift lever to the transmission with the Pioneer Automotive Industries Automatic Transmission Shifter Cable (P/N: CA-1229). This shift cable (also written CA1229) drops in as a direct-fit replacement for the 1997-2001 Ford Explorer, 2001 Ford Explorer Sport Trac, 1997-2005 Ford Ranger, and 1998-2001 Mercury Mountaineer. If a stretched, frayed, or seized cable is why your shifter feels sloppy or won't line up with the intended gear, replacing it with this Pioneer cable restores that mechanical link.
A worn shift cable is a common cause of a hard-to-move shifter or a lever position that doesn't match the selected gear, so it's a frequent replacement on high-mileage trucks and SUVs like a 1998 Ford Explorer or 2000 Ford Explorer shift cable job.
