I searched but couldn't find my exact issue-shifter

[ubtripn]

is loose and rattling when I drive. The shifter and the collar on the column that it is attached to are loose. Now is goes into gear great, detents are working but even when it is in gear it has play. (It doesn't come out of gear though) Plus the steering wheel is making a scraping sound sometimes.

Is there a bearing in there or a bushing I can buy? Everything lower on the column has no play and looks good.

Also, is anybody still making those delete plate for the radio hole?, for lack of a better term.

Thanks in advance for the help.

I can't believe I have been on here for 13 years, wow. Couldn't have done it without all of you.
