JibHonk · 10-06-2011, 03:08 PM

Repped as i will now be using this how to again to uninstall the AMS, thinking of going TWM next.

No problem man. Whatever works best for you!

Hopefully the TWM suits your needs and tastes, and this time the install should be a lil easier

Damn i wish i would have read this before buying the B&M. I have a major issue with filing that plate down. Thank you for the excellent write up, i am going to sell my B&M and buy this one. Thanks again.

No problem. I'm just glad it helped regardless of whatever Short shifter you decide upon.

Everything written above is spot on, just wanted to add a way to get that knob out of the way early and avoid all the vice work and make removing all the boots and junk easier.

Tools needed:

1.) Strap Wrench
2.) Elbow grease

How hard is it if you just want to install an after market knob?? Is there a DIY on that?

I know this is a very old thread, but why are the pics so blurry and what's with the camera image covering half the pic? I was looking for info on shifter knob replacement. I have a neat looking pistol grip from Browning In want to install. So if anyone knows of a better thread I would like a heads up.
Thanks peeps

Pictures are clear for me. Are you trying to figure out how to get the old knob off?
