i wanted to change the shift knob, so i tried to unscrew it, but i dunno if it's me, but the thing won't budge. I eventually gave up because I was afraid that by twisting too hard, it will damage the joints inside the gearbox.
does any1 know anything about this, whether or not this will damage the joints??

 

You just have to turn it really hard.

 

Did you unscrew the bottom ring first under the knob? After you do that it should be no problem for you.

 

Indeed....

 

Yes, Just turn it real hard. Keep trying

 

what is the bottom ring?? where is it??

 

you have to turn counter clock and twisted hard. last time i turn the wrong way that is why it doesn't twist.

 

I'm probably giving you wrong information. I'm thinking about my other vehicle. Sorry...Listen to the others...Just turn it harder...

Good Luck!

 

The bottom ring part is on the wood knob, you just have to crank the leather one.
