ABSTRACT:
A shift lever device which has a simple structure, and in which there is no need to provide a separate member such as a boot member, and for which assembly and manufacture are easy, and which can be manufactured at a low cost. The shift lever device is formed by a shift lever member, a base member, a shaft fixing portion, and a passage space. A retainer portion for shaft-supporting is provided at a base end portion of the shift lever member. A support portion for mounting the shift lever member such that the shift lever member is rotatable by a predetermined angle is provided at the base member. The shaft fixing portion is provided at a lower portion of the support portion, and shaft-supports the retainer portion within a box-shaped space whose upper portion is open. The passage space is formed in the support portion. With the base end portion of the shift lever member in an inclined state or a horizontal state, the base end portion passes through the passage space to the shaft fixing portion from an opening through which a lever shaft portion passes. The shift lever member, at whose base end portion the retainer portion is provided, is thereby installed to the support portion.
