The idea is that the shift knob screws on the end of the shift lever. Now
since normally it has a shift pattern or logo or whatever on top of it, or its
shape makes it want to be turned a certain direction, it is unlikely that it
will tighten up in just that orientation, so you put the lock nut under the
knob, then screw on the knob. When you have the knob rotated the way you want
it, you hold it in position and screw the lock nut up from underneath and
tighten it against the bottom of the shift knob. (Sometimes called a "jam"
nut.) This should lock the shift knob and the lock nut in position.
