> In my 60 this happened and I found the shift lever was bent between the
> top ball and the bottom ball and both balls were worn. Also found it had

> size.
> The rest of the problem was the detent spring for 3rd was broken so gear
> was not held in place all the time.
> (My symptoms were that only sometimes it kicked out gear under load)
> So if you are lucky and the tractor has not been run too long (gear not
> fully engaged) this may fix the problem??
> It fixed my 60.
