8N Transmission Problem

We have an 8N that is giving us some transmission problems.

This past weekend, the tractor seemed to get stuck in second gear. Even though the gear shift appeared to be in neutral, the tractor still moved forward. No other gears worked. When the shifter was in anything other than neutral the tractor did nothing.

I removed the cover to the gear box and made sure the slot in the shifting rod was lined up with the gear shift. I replaced the cover and tried the gears again. This time all of the gears worked except for first. First gear would work, but the gear shift would not stay in place.

Today we used reverse to back the tractor up with scoop attached into a pile of manure. We dumped the manure and then headed back to the pile for a second scoop. The tractor would not go into reverse or any other gears. It would only go into second gear.

Does anyone have any ideas?

My 8N did the same thing except it also left the tractor in 1ST and 2ND gear at the same time. It broke 2ND gear teeth out. Mine was caused by the shifter rod just below the cover plate being worn and small enough to leave the tractor in 1st. Check to be sure the rod has not been worn down fron usage.

I would take the cover back and make sure that the forks are securely locked with the set screws and locking nuts on the shift rails. Sounds to me like one or more of them may be loose and the fork is slipping on the shift rails.
