shifter Q.
hi! the boot for my shifter is missing and i just bought a autozone hotrod style boot that im gonna rig up to it. my problem is the shaft starts out small then gets gradually thicker with some sort of rubber/plastic then goes to bare metal towards the bottom. is there any way to remove this?
sorry i would take pics but its 9:00PM here

What year is your truck? It is a 5spd? If so, no. That fat part of the shifter(1 3/8)Where the stock boot seals to the shifter is 1 1/4. Maybe if you unbolt the shifte from the trans then put the boot on then instal lthe shifter back on the trans

Too remove the shifter take the nut off of the pass. side, put on driver's side and tighten, and that'll pull the pin out so you can take off the shift lever.
