ladies and gentle men altho not actually a Bronco question could apply to Broncos. I have a 1990 F-150 4.9 5 speed 2wd that will not remain in fith gear without slight pressure applied to the shifter. If pressure is not applied to shifter it will pop out in abt 30 seconds under light driving, the harder i accelerate the quicker it will pop. Any ideas besides a rebuild.

Hey Elmo,

Trannys are my weakest subject...however I did have the same issue with a Ranger and also on a Fiat X19, on both the trans had to be opened and there was a cracked part. ( don't remember what the name of it was.)  I opted to have them both rebuilt.  Put a new clutch and pressure plate on at the same time.

Good Luck
