To pull the input shaft you remove the large snap ring holding the input shaft bearing cage in the housing. Looking at the 1X8/9 service manual, page 2-74, you'd do steps 1,2, 9,10, 11, and 12. It's not a complete dissassembly, but pretty close.

I was hoping to remove the shifting lever, and replace with correct handle. Looks like some research is in order. Not sure I want to pay 45 big bucks for a simple 90* bolt. Guess then I will know what all the replacement requires. I was looking for a picture how-to on the forum, but don't see one,....................................
