I pulled the gearbox out of my New Holland 469. After removing the sprocket assembly from the shaft, the drive pins (I likely have the terminology wrong) were revealed . Of the four spring-loaded pins, two were in a position where they could engage the sprocket assembly. The other two were down where they would not.
Is this the way it is supposed to be?
The two that are down, are easily pushed in a little, and bounce right back to their starting point, so they are not stuck, and there is a spring behind them that is still working. I, however, expected all four to be fully out and able to help drive the sprockets.
