ok, im installing my short shifter right now… i got everything off except for the shifter. the shifter has that ball in the middle and i cant get the whole thing out. i looked in the teg tips and the installation doesnt say anything about the little ball. i need help really quick. thanks
aroun that ball theres a rod thas mounted to teh trans… take it off… it might make it easier if you drop the exhaust too… o yea… theres actually two rods… drop um both…
okay, u need to take off the shift link bar, but u dun need to take off the stabilizer bar, (u can juss do the whole thing underneath ur car - if ya want)… and the ball thing, u mean the rubber boot thing holding the shifter in? ya um… if u cant take them apart, try greasing around it real good or something, it comes out… and do not rip the rubber… o btw, it’ll be alot easier if u juss take the whole rubber boot thing out from underneath the car than to try and take apart the shifter away from the boot from underneath car… to do this… i think u have to remove the center console from inside the car and push the top part of boot down… i think… its easy man, couple screws here and there, snap off plastic and wala… goood luck heh.
thanks i figured it out. wow…i love the short shifter!! big difference. highly recommended. $30 on ebay
