Shifter rod/clutch adjustment or transmission screwed??
65 3 Tree
Adjusted n rebuilt rod/grommets Shifts fine Maybe seems like it may be fully engaged too high (Meaning that it seems to have a bit of lower travel left on the column After Being Fully Gear engaged) But shifts to/for neutral fine And from. Any gear to any gear fine Was popping out of 1st n 2nd (under medium high load) before second adjustment 1st still popped out under quick heavy load (for maybe a week) but shifted it early so it didn't have a chance to But drove fine Out if nowhere It ?popped? Out of 2nd...sounded like flapping Sounded more like a Reverse Grind As if something wasn't Fully Engaged So shifted to 3rd n pulled to another road Tried second again(shifts fine) let out the clutch and it would engage and start moving till about Half of the clutch pedal travel (pedal adjustment is off maybe and inch at the top) Then?Flap flap flap flap? As if gears are kicking from each other due to Very Minimal engagement Happens same clutch peddle position any gear And gears will move the truck all shift in and out fine Have no clue |

Sounds like either the shift linkage is still out of adjustment, or worse, could be that the transmission internals are worn enough that they won't hold in gear anymore. Hopefully it's the shift linkage

Check your centre carrier bearing on the driveshaft. That could be the flap, flap, flap and might cause the other shifter problems.
Also check your motor mounts. A broken one on drivers side can also cause shifting problems. |

Single shaft so no carrier bearing
Will check mounts Friend suggested that the Clutch Disc Split It Is like 5-6 yrs old |
