IH 2444 Transmission

chuckp · Sep 9, 2000

I own an IH 2444 Tractor that has been giving me some problems with the Transmission. The Transmission has 4 forward and 1 reverse speed in two ranges, high and low. The low range works fine, however, when the high range is selected the lever jumps back into neutral. All speeds work in both ranges, but you have to hold the lever in high range to use it. I usually do my own maintenance, but, I kind of dread if I have to remove the transmission. Any help on what to do would be appreciated.

Additional Info; This Tractor is the same as the IH444. The 2444 is the industrial version with heavier hydraulics.

chuckp, I'm surprised that it's been two days and no one's had an answer. Wish I could help, but that's one I know nothing about./w3tcompact/icons/frown.gif

Thanks Bird. I don't suppose there are many Tractor Mechanics to visit the site. By the way I'm about 60 Miles north of you on Hwy 34.

Chuck, if you're that close, then it's too hot and dry to use a tractor anyway for awhile (or to work on one)./w3tcompact/icons/frown.gif
