TJ5208 1,824 #1 Posted February 20, 2022 (edited) Okay guys my transmission just went out on my 520-8 it won't pull itself and when you go to push the tractor by hand while it is in gear it just makes a grinding noise what could cause this.

TJ5208 1,824 #2 Posted February 20, 2022 Ok figured out the problem it was in the center of the hi and low range. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Is this thing self destructing all by its self?? When they are not running you sometimes have to rock them a little to line the gears up so that they will mesh correctly. Just the nature of a standard tranny. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

And a lot of times what I do from the when I read the manual is I push the clutch in and put it back out and try it again and it works. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

That is what you have to do sometimes with straight cut gears and no synchronizers. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
