Hi All,
This one has me stumped. 20006 1/2 ton with a manual five speed. Occasionally, especially when warm, it's very difficult (as in almost impossible) to put into first gear when stopped. When this happens, it won't go into any gear (so you can't use 2nd to line up the gate).
Also, at least sometimes, if I push in the clutch and put it into gear a terrible rattling sound starts. It sounds like chains rattling and continues even if I take it out of gear for as long as the clutch is in. I haven't had a chance yet to go underneath and figure exactly where the noise is coming from (it sounds further back than the tranny, but I have a topper on and it's probably echoing off of that. It's got to be tranny or clutch, right?). Again, this is with the truck stopped, clutch in, and doesn't start until I put it in gear.
Any ideas? Any chance a sticky throw-out bearing could cause these issues? Hoping to avoid putting a new tranny in a 16 year old truck. Miles are low (about 150k).

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
