Hey! The shifter **** should unscrew if you turn it in a counterclockwise direction. I know that's how it is on my '84 TA, both with the stock T-5 and shifter and with the new T-56 and Hurst Billet Plus shifter. It's probably screwed on pretty tight, but you should be able to just grab it and unscrew it! Good luck!
