Help! This afternoon while grading some rock I managed to get my '48 8N stuck in 1st and 2nd at the same time.

I shifted from 1st to 2nd while barely moving (blade lifted) to run down the hill for a new pass. The tractor instantly stopped moving as the shifter was being placed in 2nd. Removed the cover plate but didn't couldn't move anything even after rocking the tractor back and forth.

Is there an easy fix to try before I dig into it or haul it somewhere? Thanks for any and all help. Steve

I hope you have beter luck than I did... I managed to get the transmission into neutral. I had to take the cover plate off and work the shift forks and finally they released. this solved the immediate problem but in this process at least one tooth was fractured causing a total disaster. Once you get it released listen carefully for any abnormal noise in the gear-train. You may want to watch your oil for steel fragments. Watch the whole casing for cracks as a result of stress during the period of both gears being engaged. Best of luck.
