Default Bayou transmission problems

I am new to the forums but I have a question

I own a 94 rebuilt bayou 300 4x4. Everything was rebuilt, bored, polished EXCEPT I never did split the case to check out the tranny. Now its been running good. Its been beating my friends recon and trailbosses as usual but now suddenly its been acting up.

When I got close to my house we shut off our engine for a break. I noticed while driving the it got harder and harder to shift. well needless to say it fired right up and my friends left but when I tried to shift.....it wouldnt go!the shifter pedal was jammed. I pulled up really hard and got first gear as long as I kept the pedal up with a lot of force. the next day I messed with the clutch adjustment. I set it really loose, tight, and in between. It just wont catch gear/shift! Any suggestions would be nice. I replaced all the internals (clutches, top end, ect) but never messed with the tansmission
Is it hard to split the case? I think it might be a 9 year old shift fork, or the drum.

The case isn't really hard to split but after you split it, it gets hard. You may checking your ideling.

before u split the cases i would check the shift change lever behind the multi plate clutch assy to c if the claws are broke off or the return spring maybe broke not letting the shifter come back up
