Thanks didn't realize the g/box was still loaded up until the brake depressed.

It can be, especially in a bound position like rolling backward or forward. There is a way that the hst relives pressure but the override is the this unloading valve.

Interesting, will check this. Hard shifting is my biggest complaint.

This is the easiest with two people. Have the engine running and someone pumping the brake and you check the motion. Then adjust from there.

Absolutely! I love this machine, it sucks to hear that people don't get the performance that it can have.

You seem very knowledgeable and experienced with these transmissions so I thought I’d ask. I rebuilt one last week because the internal shift fork had damage and wouldn’t shift into reverse at all. I got it tore down and fixed it. Put it all back together and drover it around for awhile and all gears worked no issue. I made a little mistake and the 4wd wouldn’t shift at all so I tore it back down and realized my issue was 4wd gear set. Reinstalled it properly and put it all back together, made sure everything shifted properly and it all did. I get it all back together and now it wants to grind when I try to shift forward or reverse, but it was operating perfectly the first rebuild and when I tore it back apart to fix the 4wd, I only uninstalled the first section of trans case which held 4wd and the 2 orings. With that being said, I can’t imagine it’s an internal issue. Can you help me out? My coworker said he thinks it’s idled up a little too high and could cause it to grind when trying to shift but I’m away from the machine until Monday. Please help lol

Update, forgot to put that with the machine off, it will shift through all gears with no bind or any indication that something is installed wrong.

Could be too high of idle speed. Also could be the hst not in a neutral position. Lift up the rear, disconnect the hst rod from the back end and start it to see if that works. Then while it's running and in gear connect the rod and adjust it so the wheels don't spin. Does that make sense?

@@SearlesStation yes it does and I was already thinking too high of idle but I just wanted to see if you had anything else in mind. Thank you so much. I subscribed! And I will update to say what the issue was later today

Update. It was indeed the hst rod was adjusted out. Raised the rear end and adjusted until the wheels stopped and no more grind. Thanks so much man. Although I have no idea how it got out of adjustment because all I did was unbolt the rod and drop it down lol

I have backed up a few times with the emergency break on. Did I cause any long-term damage? Also, I have had problems shifting into gear. Please advise.

Should be any long term issues just wear on the brakes. You may need to do some adjustments on your shift linkage too. Grab a helper and have them in the cab and just watch how the stuff works. Go slow and watch it happen, you can see when things don't work smoothly.

Does it work with all sizes of engines..or just the HST trans

@SearlesStation 6 ай бұрын

The unloading valve is for the hst. If you have a different style it could be a linkage issue. It helps to have two people work on some of this stuff. One to move levers and one to watch the linkage points. Grab someone and go through it. But be safe! It's best to test while it's running so be careful
