Tranny 101

Postby Sqz-Box » Tue Aug 22, 2006 7:13 pm

I got my 2nd/3rd gear shifter fork welded and put back in the tractor. Works great. Thanks much to Rudi and his article "Tranny 101" and his encouragement on the phone. I was led to believe (before finding Rudi) that I'd have to split the tractor to fix the fork. The first time I heard that advice was from the Son of the Lady who sold me the tractor. I also got the same impression from reading the IT manual.

I was starting to accept the notion of sliding the gears into neutral and then closing it up and just use 1st and reverse until I had the courage and equipment to split the tractor.

Thanks again Rudi!!
Kevin

The PO of my tractor was convinced he would have to split the tractor to fix the tranny as well (popped out of gear). I haven't had the heart to tell him it only took about an hour to have it working like a charm with the help of the good folks here! Could explain the favorable purchase price.....
