take the whole shift linkage out of the car bolts 3 and the ones in front on the back of the trans
then take bolt 1 off then with vise grips on the back of bolts 2 loosen bolts 2 to get them off then swap all your parts then use vise grips to retighten bolts 2 and use all the steps in reverse to put it all back together

I wedged a flat head screwdriver between the linkage and the bolt. Once you put pressure on it it will come off.
