Question for Bill - AW-4 handle
Bill - I'm betting you will probably know the answer and may even have a
picture...
For a '99 XJ with the AW-4 tranny, is there any way to remove the T from
the shifter shaft? I never have liked it and would like to replace it
with something like a Hurst shifter T handle. I've seen Hurst T handles
with integrated buttons that are used for hill holder brakes. I'd bet
that button could replace the AW-4's T handle button (assuming the AW-4
button activates a solenoid instead of a mechanical linkage).
I've been told I can just pull the T off the shaft, but I'm afraid to do
that - I suspect that shaft is just held in with some plastic thingies.
Anyone know how to do this or have pictures?

Re: Question for Bill - AW-4 handle
Thanks for the picts Bill.
They show the T handle is a separate piece from the shaft, but nothing
indicates how to remove it. I don't want to mess with any of the
cabling or anything. Just removing the handle shouldn't require
anything other than hooking the button switch to the button on a B&M
type T handle so it should work. If I could just figure out how to get
that handle off.

Re: Question for Bill - AW-4 handle
This may not help, but the last console automatic car I drove had a small
allen screw in the front of the handle that held it onto the stick. It was
also a 76 Dodge Aspen.
