5000 gearbox no 4th gear.

Post by 5000blues »

I bought a 1004 County recently but it has only 3 gears, no top gear. The previous owner told me it was always like this. Does anyone on here know how 4th gear would have been removed? I haven't opened the gearbox yet so I want to know what I should be looking for, would the selector be blocked off or would the actual cog be missing?

Hopefully the cog is still there and it's just a matter of fixing the selector.

No expert, but some countries had certain gears obstructed from the factory, not sure if this could be your case.
