My 1945 Case VAC is stuck in 4th gear. This happened after driving the tractor around my property and down a paved road for about 1/4 mile in 4th gear. The gear lever position is in neutral. I can start and operate the tractor in 4th gear by depressing the clutch but as soon as I try to shift it to another gear, it will only go into what appears to be the reverse gate. In the reverse gate the tranny locks up and the engine dies as the clutch is released.

As you and Jerry recommended, I took the shifter assembly off of the tranny. It was somewhat difficult to remove, required considerable wiggling, as the shift fingers/gears were out of proper alignment.
The fingers looked fine with just some wear on the most forward of the three fingers. Once the gears were all disengaged, I smeared the fingers and gear journals with white grease and reassembled. The tranny now shifts just fine.
Thanks again guys.
