I am new to this forum and relatively new to the world of tractors. I bought my JD 400 backhoe/loader about a month ago to do some work around the farm. It is model year 1968. It worked great until yesterday. I noticed that I started to have some trouble shifting it. I was on my way back to the barn to check the fluid level when it stalled on an incline because I couldn"t get it out of gear and pushing the clutch did not disengage. So now it is stuck on a hill in gear. I can"t get it out of gear, and I can"t get it started because it won"t start in gear. My thought is that the throwout bearing is stuck, but as I said, I"m pretty new to the world of tractors. Any help would be much appreciated!

I would think that it should have a safety switch somewhere around the shift levers. Are there any wires going under the cover that holds the gear shift boots ? It should just have 2 wires. If you find it TEMPORARALY jumper it so you can start it up and figure out your other problems.You may need to releave some pressure on the gear train from the hill buy working the loader or hoe. MAKE SURE YOU HOOK THE SAFETY SWITCH BACK UP !!!
