Follow up question!
Problem is getting worse! Took it (her) to a friends farm for them to use in an old fashioned farm wedding. Enough with the back story. Trans was really giving me a hard time. Not wanting to go into gear, had to really slam it in, from neutral position. Once moving it will shift, no grinding, slides right in. Also when starting the truck will jump as if it’s in gear. A friend tried it, he’s a mechanic that restores old junk, I mean Gems, he said it’s probally the shaft bushing that is probably scored, and pinching the shaft, not allowing free play. Any thoughts on this? He said to use a roller bushing instead of the brass!
What do you all think?
Thanks
Jim
