Turn signal arm removal and gear shifter arm

[Brandon N.]

Looking for assistance in removing the turn signal arm from the turn signal assembly on a non-tilt steering column. Does it screw in there or do I need to take this little retainer off the top or ??? Thanks in advance.

Also, is there something that keeps the pin in place for the gear shifter arm or does the pin just need to be pushed out? I see a thin metal spacer between the top of the shifter and the pin, but I’m not sure if that’s holding the pin in there or not.

Hi Brandon,

     Check that steering column diagram I sent you last week (The one you had to Google).  It has all the parts of the steering column listed from top to bottom.  It's the one Jason posted.

I did but it didn’t help much.

The turn signal arm screw out. There are 2 flat spots where a wrench will fit.   The shift lever pin is pushed out. I use a small brass punch and a hammer. Yes, there is a shim plate, so get that as well when the arm comes out. Take not as to what side it is on.
