How to remove LBZ NSBU

[gassux]

I've dropped the valve body and removed the hex bolt from the old switch. I can't figure out how to remove the old switch from the shaft. This was supposed to be a quick change but what a pain in the balls.

You have to slide the shaft out of the case and switch.

are there any special tools needed? just pry from the inside out? what a pita i wish i could find a diagram

There is a retaining pin that keeps the shaft in the case. Been a little while but it's the alignment dowel for the VB IIRC

Theres a black pressed in pin just to the inside of the shift shaft once the valve body is pulled. You take a pair of vice grips or something to pull it out, then the shaft slides out, and the IMS can be removed.

That pin can be very hard to pull out.

It is not one of the dowels for the valve body. It's a separate piece.

I was finally able to dig back into this, the pin for the IMS came out pretty easily but I have two parts that came out when i was dropping the valve body and I'm not sure where they came from. I think the slave valce goes behind one of the solenoids, not sure which one. The A solenoid has one already

finally found a diagram, it looks like it goes opposite the solenoids toward the rear of the truck. In a bit over my head

That is the valve that is hooked to the shifter.

The little pin goes in the slot in the end of that valve. The 6 speeds usually have a plastic retaining pin that holds that valve from coming out of the valve body....
