Is it an aftermarket belt?

They tend splip a lot.

If it is aftermarket try using a Ford motor company belt.

I'm not sure.

I would guess around $25. I'll ask tomorrow while I'm at work. I work at a Ford dealership.

it could also be your tensioner pully causing the belt to slip...and if i remember correctly from when i replaced my belt, to get a ford motor craft belt its gunna be around 45-50 bucks.

The belt price Jworm stated is around the norm it does vary from dealer to dealer depending on how much they mark up.

With the shifter I suggest going aftermarket because the factory shifter is over a 100 bucks, I believe it is around 150.

hang on let me pick my jaw up off the floor. okay do you know af any sites that carry aftermarket shifters for that.
In brief does any body know how it comes off cause ill put a rubber band around it and call it good if its really high maybe.

There is a little pin in the shifter handle facing towards the dash. Parts stores carry them.

Try a junkyard.

I had to custom make an overdrive button. Mine is in is in the place where the ash try used to be. You'll need a push button switch.
