Hi all. I have a '92 3930 with 1350 hours. It has developed a problem that is getting worse and I'd like to ask you'all for a tip or two. The clutch works great and it's still strong, no slips, no erratic operation, etc. My trouble is this: When you push the clutch in to put the tractor into reverse or if you were in reverse and want to shift into 1-2-3-4 or just whatever gear, the trans grinds badly and the tractor will not let you shift, period, no way it's going into gear unless you shut it off, place it into whatever gear you want, start it and then try to get the low/high range shift to go into gear, which it will, while grinding and then the tractor lurchs forward. This is getting to be a problem. I have about 1-2" of pedal free play, the clutch lets out great and it will stall the tractor without slipping, but I cannot get that dude to go into gear. It's the original clutch and the tractor has not been used for anything but pulling a 6' bushog. Any ideas's and thanks!
