I posted this on the Farmall forum, but there was no response. Thought I'd try here. I am doing maintenance on my Dad's Case IH 235 with hydrostatic transmission. He is 94 years young and uses it with a Woods RM59-3 mower to maintain the farmstead. While going over things, I discovered that the lever which switches from neutral to low or high range is darn hard to get to move. It's like it is stuck with glue. There is no noise to indicate any internal issues, but just hard to move. I haven't taken it apart, but did see that there appears to be a ball bearing incorporated that moves between three holes cast in the transmission housing. The ball is pressed against the housing by a spring. I gave it a good dose of "Chetah Grease" (sprays out like WD40 then turns into a grease that is waterproof and slick) yesterday. I doubt I got much inside the housing for the ball, so got to wondering if anyone else has dealt with this and what's the best method of repair. Thanks in advance.

Well, when our family moved to our 20 acre site near New Prague, Minnesota, I had one thought in mind. You guessed it, farm it somehow. A little history is in order. In my younger days, mom, dad and my brother made frequent visits to dad's youngest brother Pete, who took over the home farm from grandpa MIke. It was the typical set-up, milk cows, pigs & chickens. In the winter, we'd play
