Holy cow - rear shift coupler totally stuck on the shaft
Tried heat
Tried soaking it in Pblaster
Tried giving it some taps won't a hammer.
Still totally stuck.
Wondering if making a relief cut with a body saw would help?
Other ideas?
Thanks!

Put the bushings and the pin back in it. Hook it back up to the shifter shaft (from the gearshift lever) and tighten down the bolt for the clamp.
Obviously leave the tapered pin out....
Use the gearshift lever to move it back and forth on the transmission shift shaft, while gently pulling to the rear.

Leverage is your friend.

I finally got it off after heating it up again. It just came right off with zero force.
It looks, and this is a highly technical term here, gooey inside where the shaft enters it so I think it was installed with some soft of adhesive that the heat finally worked free.
Thanks again gentlemen!
