Handle - Removal

REMOVAL

Special Tools:






NOTE: Manual transmission shifter assembly shown. Automatic transmission shifter assembly typical.

NOTE: Most handles can be remove by hand. The motion should mimic that of a slide hammer. Constant force doesn't aid in the removal of the handle.





1. Slide the shift lever (2) back towards the seat and pull in an upward motion with a "quick" snap to remove the handle (1).





2. If removal of the handle by hand is not possible wrap a shop towel or equivalent (4) around the base of the handle (3) and using puller or equivalent (2) and slide hammer (1), remove the handle (3) from the shift lever.
