You're right about all that. Try to find play in the main upper shaft and transmission large gear, and other than that maybe you need to see what position neutral is in, it could be damage in the selectors allowing a gear to rub against another. Just a thought. Keep trying with different combinations, you'll find out sooner or later. Did you put the PTO idler gear the right way round? I'm running out of ideas too.

Hi Sandy, I'll start repairing the tractor again today or tomorrow. What do you mean by adjusting the PTO idler gear? Aleš

I don't mean adjusting, just that it's the right way round, though I doubt it'll fit the wrong way.
