1086 gears grinding

Russell Moore · Mar 16, 2014

I have tried to adjust the linkage on my shifters and I also adjusted my clutch it got better but it still grinds
if you put it in neutral and let the clutch out then try to shift it into high low or reverse it grinds
once you have it in range if you try to shift from gear to gear it grinds and sometime will not even go into gear
any help or suggestions would be great thanks

Transmission brake needs attn..

Well first off lets start with getting ALL the clutch adjustments done First since there is more to it then just adjusting the CLUTCH . First ya adjust the free travel on the clutch , then ya adjust the transmission brake , then ya adjust the DUMP valve . If you have never done this before and have no idea on what your doing you need a BOOK and you can also search back back thru the archives as i have gone over this many times . Yes a 1086 is a little different then a )6-66 sires but not that much . Next off there is NOTHING in any I H transmission of those years that is a syncro . AND gears will grind , now IF your are good at double clutching and can chew bubble gum and walk across the street rubbing your tummy and patting your head all at the same time then you can shift a I H tractor with out grinding gears .

I was useing a book and adjusted all the way through just like the book says
I understand there is some grinding on those tractors when shifting but I dont think it is suppost to sound like you are gringing a new set of gears every time you try to shift that is if it shifts and dosent hang up (sounds like you are trying to shift without pushing the clutch in) making you stop and put the tractor in park before you can shift it agin
our other IH tractors grind some just seems like this one is a little much
maybe I will readjust everything agin and see if that helps

if you start in gear, stopped, and while holding the clutch to the floor, shift to neutral, then it grinds trying to get back into gear, that tells me the clutch is dragging. could be bad pilot bearing, warped clutch disk, etc.

if after running in neutral, you push down on the clutch and immediately try to shift into gear, it will grind some. if you push the clutch then wait maybe 5 seconds the trans should be stopped by then.

if you"re talking about shifting while moving, then like tractor vet said you can do it but it takes practice and coordination.
