Need a fix! Shift knob and shaft pull off!?
Posted: Wed Nov 02, 2005 3:03 pm
I have a 90 Legacy L, and the shift knob keeps coming off. The shifter is a bit different than the pictures of the shifters I've seen on here. The shifter is 2 parts, the first part which ends in a rubber shaft, and then the rest of the shifter which goes over that and then has the threads for the shift knob itself.
My problem is that the rubber isn't holding onto the rest of the shifter assembly very well. During normal driving it slides off gradually. I tried to use the old hairspray trick I used to use to put grips on my bike handlebars, but that didn't help at all. Is there anything I can do to fix it?
I can get pics when I get home from school, but help would be appreciated!
