how to remove 4 speed shifter?
i'm taking out my 4 speed transmission and can't seem to figure out how you would remove the shifter shaft from the trans took couple pics does it disconnect if you take these pins out 1 on each side? can't get them to come out tried turning and pulling with vise grips with no luck.

I went out and tried it and it worked I would have never guessed how this came off lucky I didn't get rough with the pins just alittle twist and pull figured there was a trick to it so asked before I damaged anything thanks for the help

There are only 2 types that I know of.
One is like above, push down and 1/4 turn CC.
The other you unscrew CC. The cap I think has flats on the sides where you can put large channel locks to unscrew.
I don't know what type you have, maybe post up a picture so we can tell for sure.

To remove this cap, it must be pressed down by hand and held down while turning it counterclockwise to remove it.
People unaware use pliers or channel locks to remove it, which tears out one or both of the notches.
Not pleasant!btw: The Borg-Warner T-18 & T-98 4 speed shift lever retainer cap threads off/on.
IF the 1952 4 speed has 2nd, 3rd and 4th synchromesh, it's the T-98.
