Re: changing shifter shaft seal in 700r turbo transmission

Now how do I get the arm off the shaft or do I have to take the transmission out and do this work from the inside?

Look at it with a mean eye. It'll jump right off.

Or you'll see the removal involves a nut.

I did see that but how do u get the shaft to not move because it kept trying to spin and it felt as thow it was going to brake something. Will I need to disconnect the shifter cable then remove the nut?
