My late 98 24V one ton lost fifth because a snap ring wore and came out of the groove. Fifth gear then slid out to the end of the shaft and just sat there. I replaced the snap ring and all has been well so far. This was a while ago when the previous owner still owned it, but it seems to me there was an update of some sort that had already been installed when it was rebuilt a couple of years before that. I'm pretty ignorant when it comes to trannies so if it sounds like I don't know what I'm talking about that's why.
When the previous owner, who is my neighbor, bought this pickup, it had a fresh rebuilt tranny. It was driven about 600 miles empty and suddenly he either couldn't get it in or out of reverse, I don't remember which way it was. I pulled the tranny for him, it's two wheel drive so it's a breeze, he took it to the rebuilder and got another one under warranty. Drove maybe another 600 miles pulling a loaded header trailer and maybe 3000 pounds of tools and supplies on the pickup and it locked in gear. Got another rebilt but the rebuilder balked because he said fifth shouldn't be used for pulling. It's seen maybe 5000 miles of pulling since then, always in fourth when pulling, but I always have this uneasy feeling about it. Sorry to hijack the thread, I got a little long winded. Jim

This story is about the day my Grandfather Brown (true name) decided along with my parents to purchase a new Ford tractor. It wasn't really new except to us. The year was about 1967 and my father found a good used Ford 601 tractor to use on the farm instead of "Bob", our old mule. Now my grandfather had had this mule since the mid 40's and he was getting some age on him. S
