When I was a medical student in Texas we took care of lots of alcoholics who would go into liver failure and develop GI bleeding. There was a special balloon catheter you could put in the esophagus that you could blow up to compress the bleeders. Problem is, alcoholics in liver failure get loopy (from high blood ammonia levels) and they tend to pull out things like IV's and catheters.
So when you ordered one of these catheters from central supply, it would come in a plastic bag with a football helmet, so you could strap it on the patient's head and tape the hell out of the catheter to the facemask so they couldn't pull it out.
That was the inspiration for the personal protective gear for peter while he pulls off his ****.

The easiest and safest (to body and shifter linkages) way to get the shift **** of the lever is to pull the old boot up exposng the lever.
Clamp molewrench/visegrips onto the lever 1/4" below the **** then pry the **** upwards using a small spanner/wrench that fits closely around the lever.

Most people do - at least as far as they can tell. Often some of the sloppy shifting folks experience is due to the plastic ring being broken in the rubber shift rod mount located just forward of the shifter.

Sounds like a plan...
