I am in the middle of trying to restore my 8n to its original glory. I seem to remember the trans would sometimes want to grind going into gear and I would have to double clutch it and then it was usually fine. I want to make sure the trans is good before I put everything back together.
Any tips on what I should look for? How far apart do I need to take it down for a good inspection? This tractor was mostly driven very easy by my grandpa most of its life. I was the one who was probably the hardest on it at a young age. My dad changed the hydraulic/gear oil at one point and not sure what he used as its been such a long time ago so not sure if that had anything to do with it. I know some manual trans cars can be picky with the transmission fluid and shifting.
Thanks
