The bolt that holds the park latch to the back of the transmission housing in the 2-135 White broke off. My son and I tried for an hour and a half with everything we could think of and couldn't get it out. Tdoctor said you have to pull the engine,take out a freeze plug in the front of the transmission and go in and drill it out with a long,left handed bit and reversible drill. For now,we just took the bolt out of the bottom of the rod and took the latch and springs off.
I worked all morning today getting the bolt and washer fished out,flushing everything out and putting it back together. I had it all back together,top back on the transmission,all the lines and hoses back on,brake cylinder back on,all but putting the floor back in. I started it up to check for leaks then discovered I couldn't shift it. I had the clutch pedal held down with a turn buckle,so I loosened that up hoping if the shaft was turned a little it would go in. No such luck. Here's where I admit that I didn't hook the park linkage back up. Don't need it,right? The park lock won't work anyway.
I took it all back apart,was ready to lift the top back off the transmission,all I had to do was lift the park latch rod back out. When I did,I saw the notches in it and it dawned on me that the shift forks had to slide between those notches. I reached up and bumped the shift and it went right in to gear. I got up in the seat,put the rod back in and pushed and pulled til it was in the sweet spot and it shifted alright. To heck with it,as long as I was in that far I wasn't taking any chances. I lifted the top off and put a bolt in the hole with a rubber washer on top and a nut and lock washer on the bottom.
I finally got done about three o'clock with a job that would have been done at noon if I had just put the pin back in the linkage in the first place. I got quite an education there.

Today's Featured Article - Grain Threshing in the Early 40's - by Jerry D. Coleman. How many of you can sit there and say that you have plowed with a mule? Well I would say not many, but maybe a few. 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
