Your post is hard to understand but it sounds like you need an independent transmission shop . Most vehicles will limit how much you can rev an engine in park or neutral so probably no problem there .

I agree it is a little hard to translate what you are saying. the truck should not roll in park. fords around this age are known for the gear indicator to be off. I had to fix mine in my 2003 f-150. so when you are in park the indicator might be showing you are in first. or the opposite. it has been a long time since I fixed it but I believe there is adjustment under the dash. but sometimes there is a broken piece that needs to be replaced.
