Spicer transmission trouble

How is low reverse not working? Won't go into gear? Truck won't move? We need more to go on, please.

 

Hmmm....when was the last time you had the clutch brake looked at?

If I remember correctly (haven't seen a Spicer in over a decade), those were amazingly unforgiving transmissions. You had to have everything lined up just right for the gears to mesh properly.

Another possible issue could be simple age and wear and tear. Again, working on faulty memory, I don't recall Spicers being a very popular transmission even in their heyday. As I said, not a very forgiving transmission. I do remember hearing mechanics complain about them, but it was mostly concerning driver abuse. The Eaton Road Rangers were preferred because newer drivers (such as meself at the time) didn't tear up the Eatons as quickly.

 

May I ask what this tranny goes in?

 

Then somebody screwed up something in installation. Was the work warranties?

 

It does sound like the clutch brake, I wonder if that was a problem before it was worked on.
