Got to agree with Drew, it shouldn't be hard to find replacement parts. Google comes up with a bunch of different suppliers for F53 Chassis shift cables and linkages. Ford may no longer stock new OEM parts, so a dealership might not be the best place to seek repairs. I think an independent transmission shop or full line garage might be the best option. The parts needed would not be a coach product, so the fact the RV is a Bounder shouldn't be a consideration for the repairs. What might be an issue is the fact that it is a motorhome, not a commercial truck. There is just a lot more stuff to get in the way of the repair that needs to be covered, protected or removed compared to a bare bones commercial vehicle. Things such as carpet and pretty trim for example. You might find shops refusing to work on RVs or charging a higher rate due to that fact. Let us know how everything works out.
