The problem with it is that the "arm" for 2nd/3rd gear will kinda fall or stay in or near the 3rd gear position.

Pardon me for not knowing the correct terms. but on the column, the part that actually moves the linkage rods, wont engage the 1st or reverse linkage rod all the time..

I found a post somewhere on an adjustment for these and am attempting to adjust it, hoping for the best, but I see one plastic bearing cup cracked, and the bearing itself looks to be a bit worn..
bearing cup


this is the "actuator" for the lack of better terms..



and this piece here, I'm hopin' is supposed to be 3/4 cut..

All of the parts you are showing seem visually okay. The plastic piece you mention is cracked and this is very common on all columns. All of the pieces you mentioned won't have anything to do with how it shifts. basically you have the plastic bearing holder, bearing, bearing retainer(3/4 cut piece) and a clip to hold it on. As far as the actual 3 on the tree specific stuff I have no idea. I do have factory manual and would be happy to scan the pages for you if needed though.
