i believe they pushed on at the factory. my **** also came off during a power shift. if you don't care if it gets damaged, get some big vise-grips on it. maybe a hammer and tap block would work too. good luck.

If you are going to pull it off, make sure when you are doing it that your face is out of the way. I managed to use the two-handed approach and got it between the eyes. Yeah it was stupid, I know.

Equium's ideas should work

ok, since you fessed up: when my **** was loose, i was giving my son's friend a ride home. my son (15) in the middle and his friend by the door. i was showing off and power shifted from 3rd to 4th and the **** came off and i smacked my son's family jewels. his friend and I were laughing so hard, the tears were flowing. my son didn't think it was so funny. he's doing better in choir, though.
