I have a 93 EG, and I'm tryin to remove the old shifter to replace with a short shifter. The upper ball, no nut attached to, will not come out. Is there a release button or something to help pull this old shifter out? thanx

 

glance through this it will probably help u.

I hate short shifters. Personally I think its just much better to install polyurethane shift linkage bushings and it makes for a very direct, great feel. Its also better on your tranny in the long run. But that wasnt your question, so ill shut the hell up now.

 

thanx johnny 666 for the info. and ek gripper, doesn't hurt to lay a lil info done. i had planned to do that, just i got a friend who wants it done. I have stock all pretty much on my ride, don't have money or time for playin with her. but my friend wants a short shifter, and it was a pain to remove it. any more would be great, the more the marrier?

 

the shifter has to come out through the bottom of the car, under there(on my 97 Civic) there is a plate that the shiter is in. that has two bolts that need to come undone. the shifter will feel loose bcause its just the rubber attaching it to that plate. hope this helped a lil.

 

yeah that helped. there is a plate there, i wasn't sure if it was cool to remove it or what. the shifter did feel loose at hell, just wouldn't come out. thanx crx_civic. i'll try it out now

 

the bolt wanted to spin on me so i got a vice grip and locked that on but a friend in the car makes things go alot smoother
