Factory shifter ball/knob removal from shifter rod

[anton28]

Tried searching but no luck. How do you remove the factory shifter ball/knob from the shifter rod?

The top cap pops off but I don't think you can separate the ball from the shaft.

So there's no way to retain the factory knob if one is to change the shaft?

No, the knob is molded around a boss at the top of the shifter bar, permentantly 1 piece.

There is a short shaft version of the factory shifter used on some ACRs, if that's what you are looking to do. I bought one of these for my Viper from VPA. It is about 2 inches shorter and available with red stitching or black stitching.

Works great with the MGW shift mechanism.
