my 425 will get stuck in high gear when it gets hot (will not shift to reverse)from riding it also sometimes it doesnt like to engage in reverse it just rattles i have the idle set low do i need to adust the two rods coming from the shifter box? any help would be appreciated before i start to tear appart also when i change my oil their is little metal slivers in it and little slivers stuck to transmission dipstick when i check fluid , it also surges when slowing down sometimes

 

Normal for some shavings to be on magnetic drain plug,thats its purpose. As posted to others having same problems,remove linkage arms,set in neutral,adjust to where linkage arms drop straight in shifter arm holes with no resistance,then check. Surging? More info needed.

 

If the bell crank is good take the top off the shifter ,drain out oil and clean,check for broken springs and that the lockout flap is not broken or stuck.Most times a good cleanning and fresh oil will solve the hard shifting.

 

thanks solved shifting problems
