Before I close the deal on this 5488 I have a few questions. It has had the trans updates. It is a early '84 model. I went through all the gears on power shift, 1-2,3-4,5-6, and it shifted up/down, no issues. Shifting from 2-3,4-5, there was some gear grinding it seemed. How long should a person have the clutch in for these to shift into gear no problem? Am I being to easy/slow/ cautious shifting, or should I be putting a littlew more arm into to it. Also, shifting the range into reverse, seemed like an awful lot of grinding, to the point that I thought something was wrong. Talked to IH mechanic and he said he just redid the same model all updated and rebuilt, and it pretty much did the same into reverse. Any thoughts. When you watch the IH promo's from the 80's, they show the driver hitting the clutch for a secong and shifting right down in that time.

Originally the company was called the Cleveland Motor Plow Company which began in 1912, then the Cleveland Tractor Company (1917) and finally Cletrac.
