SM456 ?
« on: September 22, 2007, 10:05:19 PM »
My buddy with the Chevy powered Yota screewed something up in his trans at the party / mud bog. He went to plow 3rd from 2nd, and something broke. It was jambed between gears, they took out the sifter and got into neutral, but now all he has is 3rd. No reverse or other forward gears. Any Ideas? I am thinking he just bent the shift fork. It doesn't make noise or grind.

It's gotta be a broken shift rail or linkage problem to be in 2 gears at once

I gave him a 2x Sm today he is going to try and salvage the output shaft from his. He opened it up and the gears are trashed.
