I was trying to figure out how to disconnect the shift linkage from the tranny of my 1995 ls, but I couldn't manage to figure it out.
There is a single shaft going directly into the tranny that is covered by a boot.
The shaft has a hole through it, but no other markings.
Any help is much appreciated!

 

take center console out. unbolt the 2 bottom bolts where shifter is. then take some sort of screw driver big enough and hammer the pin out thats connected to the tranny. and don't be a ***** you have to hammer it real hard.

 

Step 8:
To remove the shifter linkage, pull off the snap ring that covers the lock pin with a pair of pliers or a screwdriver, then with the correctly sized punch, hammer out the lock pin from underneath. Don't lose it!

If you have a spare A/C compressor bolt, they work GREAT to hammer out the pin. the long *** 12mm headed bolts with a small taper. Long so you wont hurt your hand (thats what she said?). That's if you dont have a punch.

 

Gooot it.
Thanks a million guys!

 

You don't have to take out your center console...that's so much extra work...

yeah i wasnt sure what that was all about

 

i call that a bitch pin

 

I still havent gotten mine out yet, I am at a loss. I couldnt fine a 8mm punch at the auto store so I tried a smaller one. Guess i am going to hunt down the exact one.

Anyone have useful tips on this?

 

the part you are having trouble with is obviously the pin holding the linkage to the tranny shaft...take one of your A/C bracket bolts out and hammer the pin out from the bottom of the car. I only had to hit it about 3 times and it slipped right out...good luck...
