Default Shifter ****

Hope I'm asking in the right place. I have an '84 with the automatic transmission. I was wondering if anyone can tell me how to take the shifter **** off. I want to replace the leather boot as mine is in pretty bad shape. Thanks.

You need to carefully pry up on the black piece in the center of the ****, after you pry that off there is a c-clip holding the **** on, remove that and the **** should pull off...

the little push button prys off then under it you find a spring C clip around the shaft remove it and it will pull off with a little twisting

Thanks DA1984VETTE. As soon as my new boot gets here, I'll try that. Sounds easy enough anyway. Thanks again
