Help! 4WD Shift Knob Removal 2010 JK
I am trying to remove my center console to fix the transfer case bushing and cannot remove the 4WD Shift Knob on my 2010 JK. Any tips or tricks to get it off? I tried to pop the top off and remove the retainer bushing and pull off -- no luck. I tried twisting gently w/ a strap wrench -- nothing.
Thanks guys.
Thanks guys.

Rag or something around the T case shaft if you don't want it scratched, crescent wrench or channel locks of your choice under the knob, tap up with hammer/mallet etc. Like mentioned beware of flying objects

I know exactly how you feel. I had to replace the same bushing. Get in between your front seats, a leg on each side, then pull the knob like your life depends on it. I found being in the middle the best way because it allows more force.
