Ford Ranger `02 4x4 gear shifter hard to change gears replace trans range sensor

This Ford Ranger `02 four wheel drive shifter was hard to move through the gears, and was jumping out of park. And it wasnt able to select first gear because the T-30 torx screws holding the cable to the steering column we`re loose. The (TRS) or transmission range sensor was nearly frozen and needed to be replaced. Also the torx screws on shifter needed to be tightened.
