Our White 2-105 was caught between gears when I tried to shift it with a load pulling on it. We spent the weekend rearing apart it apart to get access to the transmission cover. We realigned the shift rails and replaced everything. We drove it around the barnyard and it shifted and drove fine.
The other day we were getting ready to attach it to the planter when it did the same thing. Now the shift rails are not aligned and I can't get them aligned with a screwdriver or pry bar. It looks like we'll have to remove everything again and get back into the transmission to align them again.
Obviously something isn't right inside there. The bottom of the shifter doesn't appear to have too much wear on it, the bolts that hold the shifting forks seem to be tight, at least the ones we can reach, and there doesn't appear to be wear on the grooves in the shifting rails.
Right now it is sitting in the shop disassembled, we don;t want to reassemble it only to have the same thing happen again. Although, on the bright side, I'm getting good at disassembly. It only took me one hour forty five minutes to get the top of the transmission off.
