Will a Aftermarket Shift Knob Help Smooth Out Shifts?

I wrapped a lot of painters tape around the knob until it was nice and thick and the size of a baseball. I then used a pair of vice grips

Default Will a Aftermarket Shift Knob Help Smooth Out Shifts?

I wrapped a lot of painters tape around the knob until it was nice and thick and the size of a baseball. I then used a pair of vice grips at the bottom of the shaft (to keep it from turning) and a large monkey wrench on the knob. It took a lot of brute force but I got it off without damaging it. Hope this helps.

By the way, I had no luck with a strap wrench. The strap snapped on the first try.
