Re:Shifter linkage adjustment on my '62

[<mail@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

This is how I corrected the same problem on my 1964 Classic Wagon.  Possibly 
the shifter/column is similar.  The plastic bushing at the end of the column 
is retained with two hex head screws(5/16 head).  The screws go through 
slots not holes in the column.  The slots are angled such that when you 
twist the bushing it adjusts the play in the levers.  Loosen the screws, 
twist the bushing and tighten the screws.  I am going by memory here, this 
was in 1971, good luck.
