This truck has been having issues for a while and there have been many little problems but I'll ask about the biggest problem. The truck shifts as soon as possible. The shifts are very clunkish. The rpm needle drops like lead and it's a very rough shift. Not crisp, but rough. When it was working it would shift into 4th-lockup at about 40 mph and only when it was warm. Now it shifts at as low as 30mph and locks up even if it hasn't warmed up. Even at -20C it locks up. It locks up in gear and don't want to unlock in R, 2, 3, and 4 th. Not sure if it would lockup in 1st because the truck is never in 1st. To stop it either pulls the rpm's way down until it nearly stalls and finally unlocks or it will stall. pop it in neutral and it will stop no problem. Other rare times you'll try to accelerate and it don't want to move. rpms won't increase and it kind of shudders which makes me think it is locked in high gear because when you put it in N it has no problem revving. It pushed me in the ditch once now so it's off the road till it's fixed. I'm not sure if lockup is the right word because I thought I read somewhere that they can't lockup in R,1 and 2.

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
