Forgive me for asking such a basic knowledge question, but this is my first time on this. I know that in order to pull an engine and trans out of a sedan at the same time I need to remove the shifter and parking brake in order to clear the fire wall. Do I need to pull the six bolts off the top of the box and pull the whole shift tower or is it possible to remove the cup that retains the shifter. On a few of the pics on VP’s site (thanks Mac!) the cup looks like it’s threaded. Is that the case?

Thanks In advance.
