58 330 has been having some issues getting locked up in 3ed. I pulled the shifter assy. and replaced shift lever with a good used one. Also found one missing and two broken poppet springs. Replaced springs and re assembled. After doing that shifter would not go into any gear. I then removed all springs and it easily moved thru all gears. I then replaced all springs with weaker springs and it seems to work at least some better. As much as I can see the trans looks clean and I see no rust. So my question is, what is all this telling me? Bad shift forks, rails or poppet balls? Any help is very appreciated.
