huh? how do i remove my stock shifter?
Re: huh? how do i remove my stock shifter?
it's threaded on, but glue is also used. i suggest that you wrap a towel around the shifter and then used a wrench to twist it off. you should hear a crack when the glue breaks.

Bubble wrap? I am suprised that worked! There are quite a few write ups on this subject search around. I think they reccommend using a towel (to wrap the ****) and vice grips to turn. You will hear a pop or crack when the **** moves.

Well I had some laying around from something i ordered. The towel keep slipping and I could really get a good grip from it. The bubble wrap gripped pretty well though. Got it loose in one twist.

i dont consider it a ghetto short shifter- i call it a cut down stock shifter
i stated before that a STS and cutting down are two COMPLETELY diff things- as long as you know the throw will still be the same travel and dont call it a sts if its not
