How do you get the T-handle off??

StangGrrLy · Mar 11, 2004

Can somebody tell me?

i think you have to take the shifter off, the complete thing, and then disconnect the shift lever from the shifter mounting plate. I dont think the T-handle comes off.

pull it as hard as you can and it will just pop off, IT WILL COME OFF

oh yea watch out for the spring and button it might go flying

StangGrrLy · Mar 11, 2004

So I don't have to twist it or anything, just pull really hard? And how hard is it gonna be to get back on, with the button and all?

it just pulls off?

I thought it had a Allen head set screw on it like on the iunderside of the handle or on the back facing toward the dash?

i ripped mine off by pulling it really hard on my 88 AOD

any reason why you want to take the handle off? I believe an aftermarket shifter isnt possible because when you push the button, it PULLS on a lever at the plate, where as a push button aftermarket shifter knob would PUSH the lever...

i could be wrong but thats what i thought when i looked at mine...

It's possible, I've seen it done. Not sure how they went about it, but it's definitely doable.

it will come off, mine never had a allen screw. when i took mine off i look at it a bit , then just gave it a good old pull and i poped off, its easy a pie, trust me

mine has a C clip on it. pull that out then pull the handle off. becarful and don't lose the spring and engagement rod. good luck

I got a manual shift boot and bezel from the JY for 3 bucks. That is why I need to get the shifter off..........I'm just scared I won't be able to get it back on properly.
