How to Remove the Gear Knob on a Ford Transit

Model: Ford Transit MK 7 - Years 2006-2014
Part: Shift knob

Want to remove the gear knob from the Ford Transit? Here’s how to take off the gear knob. Grip the knob and turn it to the left until it comes off the gear stick (unscrew the thread). Use a plastic lever to disconnect the leather gaiter frame (if replacing). Secure the new leather gaiter with clips (if removed), then take the new knob and push it onto the stick in the centre console until it is tight. Test the movement of the stick in the centre console to ensure the knob is correctly fitted. Check the proper fastening of the plastics on the Ford gear stick.
