Re: shifter knob removel?

I want to say that it is just pushed onto a splined shaft. Should just have to pull it real hard.

Re: shifter knob removel?

try some channel locks and twist it off, if it wont budge use a heat gun at the bottom and grab the top and twist n pull.

Re: shifter knob removel?

Im almost positive it just a push type fit.... kinda like golf club grips... just pull real hard.. you could also remove the shifter from the colum so you dont bust your knuckles or anything...

Re: shifter knob removel?

yeah you guys are right, its just push on with some splines, i just grab them with channel llocks and twist them off. damn near evey gm vehicle ive had ended up with some sort of different knob. shouldnt be hard, but i have had them ones, a heat gun does help a bit, and ive never had to take off the whole arm.
