Shift tower........help,... please help...


Recommended Posts

No set screw in the AX-15 shifter. Put lower piece in a vise and use a big punch (brass is best) and a hammer. They will come apart....I just did mine to replace the rubber seal atop the shift tower that keeps air/ water out of the cab.

There was a special Jeep tool for separating the upper and lower halves of the shifter. Several years ago the shop foreman at my dealer told me they never, ever used it, and they finally threw it out to make room in the tool crip for tools that fit the newer vehicles.

I used a HOT 3/4" paint scraper/putty knife...jammed it in, pulled it out, all four sides around, then I applied some torch heat to the main body of the shifter and pulled it right out.  when I put it back together I used some adhesive RTV.  Worked fine, took five minutes.  No whacking.
