I think it's splined & press fit. _________________________ 1988 CVLX Formal Roof (Love Boat) POTM July 2019 & Aug 2020, 55K E-code lights w/ relays, LEDs w/ switchbacks, 15x8 Ansen slots w/ 255/60 BFG's, Kenwood stereo, various hacks. 1988 CVLX (Destroyer) 1998-2001 driven to death 202K 1988 Squire (Chris Craft) 1996-1998 junkyard rescue driven to death 199K

Get a heat gun to warm it up, cracking it with some waterpump pliers will make it come off faster. New one you want to get warm as well, have a soft faced hammer handy, heat it up, push it on as far as you can and whack the end with the hammer to seat it. DO NOT twist the new one to try and get it on. _________________________ Box stuff in the Box forum!
