Shifter peg problem
I'm trying to change my shifter pegs to the steamliner type, only problem is I can't get the stock pegs off. I tried grabbing them with channel locks and twisting but they wouldn't break free. What is the proper way to take them off?

They use loctite from the factory. Use vice grips. Sometimes they come off easy ... sometimes not. Worse case ... you tear the rubber up. Use some blue thread lock when you put the new one(s) back on.

I used a heat gun, heat the pegs thread and came off really easy.
