Transmission parts
Hello all, my 64 Super Major has no first gear, that is to say, it pops out of gear, won't fully engage. I have not yet disassembled it but I'm assuming it needs new shift forks. I'm in the U.S. and have exhausted online searching to the best of my ability. Any ideas where I can find replacement parts?

Welcome to the board.
The shift forks (selectors) are pretty strong on those tractors and will rarely give you problems. I would suspect that it could be failed bearings in the gearbox rather than a bent selector. Take the side plate off near the clutch pedal, this will remove the selectors and allow you to see into the gearbox with a light.
