3 speed transmission help

Post by agjames96 »

Been enjoying my slick for the last few months and now have lost second gear. Three on the tree. Truck has "A" vin code.

Was having to make a big "s" to find it and then all of the sudden it is nowhere to be found.

Bushings are still whole, but have ordered replacements. Adjusted linkage per manual (both up and down) and still no luck. Can find it sitting at a dead stop, but not rolling. No grinding at all, so not sure it is a synchro problem.

Anyone dealt with this before?

sounds like something in the column broke or is worn out. if you can climb under the truck and put it in gear with no problem with the trans arms it has to be linkage somewhere. your options are to attempt repair of three on tree linkage or put a three on the floor with aftermarket

It does not matter what you think, it only matters what you do about it!
