Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

So my village let me out to install my newly arrived SSK for my 01 Cab. This is the in car unit. I am all good with the instructions but wanted to see if anyone had some good advice on doing this(besides be careful)
Some shift ***** have a set screw on them, but most OEM ***** do not. The set screw will be up high on the shaft after you have lifted the leather boot up. If you don't see a set screw, then the know just pulls off.
Be careful when you pull the shifter **** off of the shifter. It will take a lot of force, and it will come loose suddenly. You can smack yourself pretty well if this happens. I took two screwdrivers and placed on each side of the shifter shaft. The screwdrivers face in opposite directions so you can hold the handle of one screwdriver and the shaft of the other screwdriver in each hand. Sitting in the driver's seat, place your left forearm on your right knee. With your palm facing up, grab the left side of the two screwdrivers (already on each side of the shifter shaft) with your left hand and the right side of the screwdrivers with your right hand (also facing palm up). You can now use your left knee as a fulcrum and pry the **** off. It may go flying straight up, but you won't knock your teeth out.
If you received the "old" instructions with your B&M shifter, they will instruct you to disconnect the cables from the cable ends. DO NOT do this!
There are two important things that will make the process easier:
1. DO mark the cables, (this is a "just in case..." step)
2. DON'T disconnect the cables from the cable ends.
Instead of disconnecting the cables from the cable ends, you will just pull or pry the cable ends off of the shifter.
There are updated B&M instructions on their web site that eliminates the "disconnect the cables from the cable ends" step. See link below:

just installed my SSK, took 4 hrs (I'm a klutz), but like it alot, forget about removing bushing with utility knife, use hammer/chisel or dremel tool, if you mark cable use a marker that will not wear off,
Have fun.
