Shift Knob
 

ok, so for the last month or so i've been wondering how to get my shift knob off. you guys may laugh but two mechanics and a dealership "master" mechanic later its still on there solid. apperently i have to take a hacksaw or dremmel tool and cut the top part off or just replace it with a shortshifter. either way i'm going to get destructive. is there ANYONE who might have a idea or method of getting it off? thanks

iuno try 2 pipe wrenches 1 on the shift link and one on the shift knob and giver! =D

lol, tired that......twice

The shift knob, as in the rubber piece? Unscrew it counter-clockwise. You may want to heat it up with a heat gun or maybe hair drier to loosen it up some

yeaah......tried that. Didn't work.
heat gun? is that really going to make enough of a difference that two channel locks couldn't undo?

On my 2nd supra I had to use the heat gun, got it kinda gooey but it came off... My first one just unscrewed with a little TLC (it was probably removed at some point before I owned it).

In any case, you have the right idea on how to remove it- they do unscrew.

ok. well first i gotta go find something to produce heat. and i'll try that. hopefully it works

Mine turns in my hand, Figured it just unscrewed. You guys saying it doesn't unscrew?

thats what i expected at first. and at first i was embarrassed to ask anyone because i thought i was just a weakling lol. but when i took my car in to get the clutch replaced the mechanic told me that he couldnt get it off either. and today i took it to the dealership and their mechanic used a pipe wrench-vice grip combo thing and STILL couldnt even get the thing to budge.

Hmmmm
 

Does your turn like mine or is yours just solidly stuck on there and can't be moved?
