Farmall M stick in high gear so I took out the gearshift and all three rails are in line still in high gear so I took off the belt pulley gear box make sure the bars are lined up under there all looks good still in high gear we even tried to shift into another great with a screwdriver???????!!!!!
 
My H did that once and the problem was that the pilot bearing had failed and jammed the end of the main shaft to the end of the input shaft, which is what 5th gear
does-just connects the input shaft directly to the differential. On the H you can drop the belly pump and pull the input shaft without splitting the tractor but I don't
know about the M.

If it shifts into and out of the 5th position (and you can see the 4-5 slider move) it is the intermediate pilot bearing. Jim

No, removing the top cover and clutch shaft will allow access. Depending on the condition of the output shaft at the pilot bearing, more part may be needed.
