fixing gear knob
« on: March 09, 2025, 16:15:16 »

hello everybody,
I dropped the gear lever knob as described on the site to proceed with the replacement of the rings.
How to fix it properly so that it does not move afterwards?
Thank you for your attention

I am assuming that the knob is for 4speed, the knob pushes back on the lever. If the knob hole is a little large then use a two sided tape on the lever then push down knob.  Should not move then.
