anyone know how? I thought it was just threaded but it won't budge and I see there is a little black peice below the shift knob so I didn't know if that had to be loosened first.

thanks!

 

Mine was threaded

 

Turn counter clock wise. Righty tighty / lefty loosey

At least on a EVO9 they are all threaded w/ no other release

 

k, I'll give that a shot. If anyone else has any other input feel free.

 

I know it's a pain if it's never been off my girl couldn't get it off while I was deployed lol good luck buddy

 

just turn it left really tight i switched mine as well it was really held on

 

the threads are plastic in the OEM knob. get a hammer/rubber mallet and hit it at medium strength while turning counter clockwise. it should budge after that. the poor mans impact wrench.

 

This could be the Official How Do I Remove My Shift Knob Thread

We could have a full DIY details w/ pics

Hopefully the OP chimes back-in w/a SUCCESSFUL removal

Edit. Watching the evening news & the issues w/ our embassy's. LOL the idiot who made the video was from Egypt (He was one of their own)

 

I just turned the knob very hard to the left, and it come off rather easily. From reading other peoples' posts on the matter, I was expecting it to be VERY difficult to get get off.

 

It can be difficult. The black ring attached to the boot sometimes stick glued hard to the bottom of the knob so you need to separate them using a fishing line or floss. Otherwise it's just threaded straight in.

 

Haha so many things said in hear that can be taken so many ways. But my knob isn't stock.

 

^Lmao!

 

LOL Joe. Only thing said in the entire thread was to turn left

You never mentioned the knob wasnt stock

Did you ever get it remvoed

 

Strap style filter wrench.
