Default Plastic part on column

Hey guys I have a 99 Ranger Sport and it has the issue where the needle that says whether you're in P N R D 2 is off to the right.
I opened the column to adjust the little nut that moves it on the wire, but the white plastic part that holds it in place to tighten or loosen (left or right on the dash) has broken off.

Do you know what this part is called or the part number?
Or if I can even get one from somewhere???


Thanks guys!!

Thanks a ton bro!
I've gone to the 2 junkyards around here and they are out of steering columns all together.
I called the Ford dealership and they had no idea what I was talking about.... figures!

OK I'll try this weekend.
It's the little white plastic part that holds the white plastic nut in place to tighten or loosen it.
