    580b shuttle

    The shuttle wouldn't shift out of forward. I removed the shuttle and high/low shifter plate to find the spool for the forward and reverse had spun. Causing the lever not to shift the spool. My question is: Can I get the shifter plate and spool back together without splitting the backhoe? Thanks
