Shifter
Installation |
Step
1:
First
remove the factory shift knob by unscrewing counterclockwise
from the stock shifter handle. It may be difficult at
first but it does come off easy once it's loose.
|
|
 |
|
Step
2:
Now pop
off the plastic shifter cover. The best way is to put your
thumbs on the inside area and lift it up with your thumbs
on both sides. Be careful not to break the plastic snap
on the very front of it. The leather shifter boot will come
out with this assembly. |
|
 |
|
Step
3:
Disconnect the cigarette lighter
power cable clip under the shifter console. There is a rubber
grommet that needs to be slipped off the old shifter handle.
Install the grommet on the new short shifter. (Most of the
time the rubber grommet stays in the shifter boot and it is
not necessary to remove it). |

 |
|
Step
4:
Next,
remove the two bolts that hold the stock shifter handle.
|
|
 |
|
Step
5:
Now
install the new shifter handle with the supplied bolts and
lock washers. Make sure to use a lock washer on each bolt.
Apply a generous amount of Blue Locktite (medium strength
#24200) on to the threads. Failure to
do this may cause the shifter to vibrate loose. **Blue locktite
can be purchased at any autoparts or hardware store** |

Step
6:
After you have the shifter
bolts tightened, you are ready to put the shifter boot assembly
back on. Be sure to reconnect your cigarette lighter or any
other wires that you disconnected. (87-93 there are no wires
to reconnect). |
|
 |
|
Step
7:
Then just push down on the
shifter cover and it will snap into place. |
|
 |
|
Step
8:
Install the factory shift knob
or Kona Racing billet aluminum knob back on and you're all
done. Make sure to give the Locktite sufficient time to dry. |
