[QUOTE="TRevs, post: 437748, member: 20654"] I removed my shifters when I replaced the shift boot, and had a hard time getting the lock ring in the AX-15 shift tower to rotate both for removal and installation. It’s such a small surface area to press down with fingertips and hardly any friction. Apparently I didn’t get it rotated all the way because the shifter popped out when I was parking yesterday at work. I got the shifter re-engaged enough to drive home, but I need to remove the boot and try to secure that lock ring. Are there any tricks for getting more grip on that lock ring? Double-sided tape?
