Obviously you guys have never had to remove on from a rusty junker settin' around for 20 years w/windows and doors open. :rolleyes: I can remove my "good" ones by hand or with pliers like you say, BUT, the old rusty, stuck ones take lots more. I have used two small boards, one on each side of handle and pushed down after lots of oil/penetrant but it's hard to get them to grab and not slip to make the turn. I have always wanted one of those tools, contacted old maker and they had none or no ideas. I was once thinking of getting some shop or maybe guys at work (GM) to make me one. Don't know exactly how the bottom part is set-up. Manual says to put the "tabs" into the shift slot. Don't know what "tabs" are there or ??? Machining a taper or concave should be easy and slot and handles, don't know about these "tabs"? I've also heard of guys making one out of a pipe that just fits the outer, flatter edge on cap and weld handles on it. Have to pass over the shifter arm to use. I seldom am able to remove the knobs, so would make the "slot" in pipe to pass over lever. This is probably what I am going to try first. :p
