I need some advice and help. I would like to remove my shifter handle from my 72 GS ( 4 spd Hurst - stock set up) and was wondering how to do that withought taking the entire shifter assy out. Can the handle be removed alone? It needs rechroming . Thanks, Steve
Use Scott's method with pentrating oil. I use the feeler gauge with an angle like you use to adjust valves.
Thanks very much. I'll try that with some penetrating oil. I appreciate the help. I assume reinstall is a simple matter of press to fit until it clicks in place? Thanks, Steve
Steve I have a 72 GS four speed, the best tool to use is a 1/2" wide metal putty knife. Just insert it on the drivers side and tap it down with a small hammer while pulling on the shifter. It will pop right out. I tried the feeler gauge and after bending ruining two of them I used the putty knife. Good luck! Tim
