Gear shift knob removal???
 
I want to replace the dried out and cracked gear shifter boot and have no idea how to remove it. At the bone yard I had to braek it off but upon inspection can find no easy way to R&R this part!

The knob just pulls off.

I had tried that at the bone yard and it pulled off but would not re attach

tech 09-22-2009 08:36 PM

That is how I have changed all that I have.
We are still talking about just the knob correct?

The automatic transmission lever in the console is the lever/handle

Are you wanting to remove the entire assembly after disconnecting the cable?

solarman 09-24-2009 07:35 PM

I just want to remove the handle assembly not the entire arm and linkage:(

Thanks alot I pulled real FN hard and she poped right off, then once I finished the new boot she poped right back on

Thanks, Tech. it worked like a charm. I tried all the other methods on the Forums. So finally I said, OK, I'll pull it off and put both hands on it and knee on the seat, and yanked. And lo and behold, out it came.
