Hey folks.
Just picked up a 1947 H. Went to look at it, it has been sitting about 6 months. Fellow tossed a battery in it and it fired right up. I was impressed. Most of what is wrong with the tractor, I know what to do about.
The exception is the transmission. 5th gear is in bad shape. I can get it moving if I hold back HARD on the shifter, but it will still pop out and grind. (By hard, let me just say that I am 6'3" and 250, so I can put a pull on something.) Does this sound like anything that I can get to somewhat easily, or am I going to have to break it down to parade rest to get in and change the ___x___??
Thanks!
