Strap wrench for the shift knob and a 2nd wrench down at the linkage to prevent it from twisting. Good Luck

I'll be tackling that later today again. The first time I tried, the strap wrench wouldn't grip the shift knob tight enough and kept slipping off

I wrapped the oem knob in a decent amount of vinyl tape, then the strap wrench and held the "stalk" with vise grips. Took me 20 - 25 minutes of wrestling the darn thing off. If there was a way to induce a little bit of heat onto the stalk, it would have been easier.
At least you got it off. I second TerribleONE, what knob?

What's all the commotion about? Distressed damsel?
Crazy title if it's just about a guy mangling his own knob. Should of used lotion. Tapatalk2 on a phone plus *nix with apple food coloring added |
