This is more of a story than advice. My dad passed away in 1989 and that spring we had a auction. The Saturday morning of the auction, I went to pull some hay rack loads of (good?) junk out of the machine shead for the auction and the gears hung up like you are discribing in our Farmall Super H. Well I though that I would have to leave the Super H off the auction but a friend came by and I told him what had happened and he said that was not a problem. He took the freeze plugs (for lack of an offical word) out and punched the pin out of the shifter. Took the shifter out, took the knob off the shifter rod, turned the shifter rod up side down and used it the seperate the gears, put the shifter back in with the pin and proceeded to use the tractor and it got sold that day. (It took about half an hour or less.) I still think my dad had something to do with that happening that day because I STILL regret selling that Super H. I wish I could buy it back but I can't convence the guy that bought it to sell it.
