I found it. Go to a locksmith who deals with cars and tell him you want to change out your ignition cylinder with Strattec part #707592. The locksmith I went to said he could file down the old cylinder so that metal rod doesn't stick out anymore and jam it but I didn't care to mess with it. I just had him change out the whole cylinder with the Strattec part. Incidently the Strattec part doesn't even have anything that could possibly cause the cylinder to lock up anymore like the POS ford part. I consider this a permanent fix.
