SO i am back again... it is what it is, anytime ive put thsi thang in reverse, i get some mad clicking based on how fast in reverse im going, slow speed, slow click, as well as if i go into park i have to get someone to shake the whole truck to pop it back outta park but thats no biggie, i keep it in neutral at all times, but yeah its been like this since ive gotten the truck, put a new shift linkage cable on it twice, i have all my gears; 1-2 2-3 3-4, as well as overdrive, just cant quite seem to figure out what is making this thing click and i dont reeaaally want to have to replace the pan gasket just to peek around in there

 

I had clicking in reverse not long before my u joints went on my driveshaft. Had them blow apart while pulling a camper in Pennsylvania, was on a road trip to Florida from Ontario, put a 300 dollar damper on my funds because I had to replace the yoke, seal and driveshaft. But was really happy because it was a cheaper fix with labor then I wouldve paid in canada...

in the end, I haven't had the noise since then, about 2-3 years now I think...

 

Universal joints would be a good place to start as suggested. Also the parking rod I have pictured is known to break. The piece that has broken off is not a good thing to have loose roaming around in the transmission.

 

would that be the case if i were to perhaps put some added tension on my column shifter which stops said clicking?

 

If you would be applying pressure on the shifter towards neutral or drive.

 

yeah sounds about right, usually when i put it in reverse if i just pull it down aliitle the clicling subsides

 

from a quick read, most people with bad or busted prawls also have have no park, i have park, it just gets bound up as if i was on a incline, i dont wanna believe its broken, i just dont know if there is a adjustment for it specifically that doesnt cost over 500 bucks lmao, tbh i dont need park so if thats a option?? lmao
