shift lever removal???
Question on how to remove the shifter from a 1975 F-250 with the "granny" 4-speed. Does in unscrew from the top of the transmission, or do I drive out a pin, or ???. I want to remove the lever so I can paint it, but I'm not sure how it comes off.
Any help appreciated.

If its a T18 unscrew the retainer, A NP435 push the retainer down and turn it.

Sound simple enough...Now how do I tell the difference between a T18 and a NP435???
Just in case you haven't figured this out already, I'm a former chevy guy. :P

The top of the trans where the shifter is aluminum on the NP435. The T18 is cast iron.
