Trans stuck in Gear

[98hd]

So I finally got my replacement trans in place in the 818 (not completely hooked up yet, but bolted in place) before I put it in the truck, the gear shifter moved freely, but while installing at some point it sort of froze up. Not sure what the deal is.

Does anyone have an idea? Is there a TM on the trans? I tried taking the shifter off of the old trans, but couldn't get it to separate from the top cover.

I'm not gonna be happy if I have to pull this one too, it was a PITA to get it put back in.

Are you pushing in the clutch to shift? That can keep it from shifting.

Try TM 9-2320-260-34-1, chapter 8
To be found in the manual section under Resources.

No, I don't have the linkage hooked up yet. The thought had crossed my mind, but I started it up also, and from my experience I can usally get a trans out of gear if the motor is spinning.

I guess I'll wait till it's hooked up and hope for the best.

Thanks for the TM# Gringel
