I am building a stand/dolly to hold the trans while i work on it. I thought it was in neutral but when i turn the shaft the rear drive turns. I tried shifting it and goes rev, 1, and2 cant get the arm to move to the 3-4 position. could something be jammed or out of alignment in side? hoping to take the top off once the dolly is done. will there be any suprises when i do that? springs popping out or stuff falling inside? gona get in touch with novak trans and see if they have new gaskets and the front bearing shaft that loooks broken.

If you're trying to shift the transmission with it sitting on the floor , that can be hard to do sometimes, you might need to rotate the input shaft while trying to shift it into gear.

I tried turning the shaft. no luck in 3-4. what concerns me is when it is in the neutral position the input still drives the out put. should have the top cover off this weekend if no rain. that may show the problem.
