Does anyone know where I can get new or refurbished shifting forks for my WD45? Agco here says they can't get them. Thanks

It is probably the sloppy play in the shifter itself near the top of the tower where the pivot pins are located. I replaced the pins with oversized and then added a couple thin shim washers below the retaining clip and above the original washer in order to force it in the engaged position instead of letting it jump up and out...get yourself a few different thicknesses of washers and play with what works best. If you take the slop out of the shifter in this way, it shouldn't jump out of gear anymore.

OK. Here goes. When shifting out of 2nd, the shift lever will jump out of the 1st-2nd gear fork slot, leaving the tractor stuck in 2nd. Upon removal of the cover, it is apparent that someone had built up the fork slots with weld in order to try and solve the problem. The gates all align properly and the edges in the slots are nice and square. The bottom end of the shift lever is built up also and doesn't look bad. The gap between each fork looks to be about 1/16 of an inch. There doesn't appear to be any vertical movement to the shift lever. How this thing is jumping out of gear beats me.

Gosh, I am no expert, but I have spent so much time on my own shifter tower that I feel like I am. Why do you need to replace the whole tower? Did something break. If you tell us the problem there may be a way of fixing without replacing. Mine was simple enough, but my first thought was to try to find a replacement...glad I didn't.
