Removing CJ7 Dash Knobs
OK, In the middle of a Rolling Nightmare, but I THINK I'll live thru
it... I'm trying to remove the factory dash knobs with Stainless Knobs from (everybody say it with me) JC Whitney. How in God's name do you get the pulls for the Vent/Temp/Defrost off. It looks like they used SuperGlue to lock them on the metal pulls! Thanks in advance for the info |

What year CJ is yours? I'll look to see if mine is even removable. Pete |

You'll need a pretty small allen wrench to loosen them. No matter if they are JC Whitney or factory - I think that's the trick! Good lucK Lynn in Vancouver |
