I searched and didn't find much but I seem to remember someone saying to put it in neutral and just pull straight up. Is this right? I just about popped a gonad trying earlier. Thanks for the input, Blake   Blake Monchilovich (Azblake) New Member Username: Azblake Post Number: 19 Registered: 02-2003 Posted on Sunday, March 30, 2003 - 02:56 pm:    I, uh, found the nut. Sunday mornings are rough on me. Please disregard post.   David (Dave) New Member Username: Dave Post Number: 36 Registered: 02-2003 Posted on Monday, March 31, 2003 - 12:00 am:    Hi Blake, I'm trying to do the same thing..can you explain how you removed the transmission handle gear selector off? I have a 97 Disco I. Thanks!   Blake Monchilovich (Azblake) New Member Username: Azblake Post Number: 25 Registered: 02-2003 Posted on Monday, March 31, 2003 - 01:37 am:    Mine's a '94 D1, not sure if the same. Pry the textured cover on top off with a small standard screwdriver. You should see a clip and a half round plastic piece that works with the thumb button to shift out of park or neutral. Pry off the clip and remove it, the plastic half round piece and slide the button out the side. Below it you'll see a 3/4" nut. Back that out and the t-handle should slide off. It'll make sense once you get it apart.   David (Dave) New Member Username: Dave Post Number: 37 Registered: 02-2003 Posted on Monday, March 31, 2003 - 09:10 am:    Hi Blake, Thanks for all the info. What I was concerned about is having lots of tiny parts and springs fall out as it was being removed ad just wanted to extra careful. Thanks again!
