It is currently stuck in "Forward" and I can drive the tractor. I just can't shift out of "Forward" into natural or reverse.
It's in "Forward" and can be driven forward. I cannot however shift out of drive.Iirc, the most likely reason for that problem, if I understand what you are saying correctly, is that the shifter is bound. If you can get it to roll slightly forward or back it should work.
Does it make sense to remove the screw and cover plate and check for rust?Sometimes these shifting shafts that come out of the cases are prone to rusting up. Spray with a penetrating fluid and try to move the shaft.
I'm sure it is just a keeper that fits in a slot of the shaft. Removing it would greatly aid the spray getting in and would allow to to look for evidence of rust. I would be careful of the shaft moving in or out with the keeper removed though.Does it make sense to remove the screw and cover plate and check for rust?
