Re: Need help removing shifter

Starterman99 is right on the "might be rusted up put some penetrating oil on it" thing. I had two of them that were so rusted I never did get the retainer pushed down.

Re: Need help removing shifter

I drove mine with the tangs broken for a few years. I was used to it but had friends who used the truck and got a little nervous when the lever came out shifting into fourth gear. One guy called all upset he had broke my truck, I talked him thru getting it back in and told him to always apply downward pressure when shifting.
