The shift rod has a pin right after the firewall that connects the rod to the transmission. Both of the bushings were completely gone, as in not even there. Not really sure how I drove it home. Everything I can find shows how to remove the pin but the bushings are part of the process...I don't have bushings so everything on removal doesn't work.

I have tried using a vice, I have tried a punch but nothing friggin works... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/blink.gif)

I have managed to damage ever so slightly one end of the pin but don't think it is a big deal, no mushrooming.

How do I get this damn pin out?

Thanks

I also use a vise with a couple sockets, one 1/4" drive just smaller than the diameter of the pin and a deep well socket on the other side; and heat if required. I've taken dozens of those apart and I have had only had one that I couldn't get the pin out.
