I have a 1968 580ck 188D that has been a great machine for the twenty five years I have owned it. Put a new hydraulic pump on it maybe ten years ago but that's about it aside general maintenance. It sits mostly but starts right up for grading my long grave drive or moving firewood with the loader. I had a load of wood in the loader and after dumping ...no reverse.
To make long story short...I pulled the shuttle cover and find the reverse drum and discs all afloat. Can wiggle them all apart. Can't see anything broken but guessing it could be a broken snap ring, maybe worse. I have a decent garage, am handy mechanically, and have the tools, but not sure where to begin. Can I break it at the transmission, free the rear end, and get it out that way. Any advice would sure be helpful. Thanks, Craig
