shifter bushing

In reference to my other thread (https://www.evolutionm.net/forums/ev...-out-load.html) I noticed my OEM large bushing wasn't installed. I figure no big deal, easy. The large bushing decided to stay on the transmission side. I pulled, tugged and got all the rubber off. I put the new bushing in, noticed it didn't work. Well FML, the OEM brass piece decided to basically weld itself inside the knob. I tried heat, wedging, PB Blasting, and no luck so far. Is there anyway to get this brass thing out? Thanks.

You could try a die grinder or dremel with grinding attachment. If its not welded in there too bad you could also try to chisel it out.

Thanks FINALLY got it. God I love my rotozip. Basically drilled 4 small holes horizontally and took a screwdriver bending it. Eventually it came out. Thanks again.
