Ok I got my automatic shifter off and cant get the dang thing back on. Any tips or if anyone can point to a thread with pics, my search only really came up with removal.

You should be able just to tap it back into place. I have done mine many times just by pushing it firmly back on. That is if you are talking about the handle itself?

Smack it with the palm of your hand.
Thanks, i'll try that tomorrow, i'm sure i'll get it on. force took it off make since force will get it on. what about the spring and the cross looking pin inside how do you keep that from breaking and not moving to one side of the rod in the shifter?
