Re: Having trouble with 3 on tree

You have to be really deliberate with the shift pattern when it gets worn out like that. Dont push the lever straight from 1 to 2. Follow the H path. Make sure its out of one gear before shifting to the next. I drove both the 3ot trucks I had like that for years. Whenever I loaned the truck out I often had to go 'rescue' my friend because the shifter was stuck between gears.
