picked up my bronc-ho with the case already twin sticked. since I bought it, i haven't been able to get the front into low.
seein as I don't have access to a lift/shop or hardly any of my usual tools, and it has been a while since I had a case apart, i was wondering if anyone could give me some ideas as to why i'd be able to get the rear in low but not the front. the PO of the case said it wasn't the easiest shift for him, but that he was always able to get the front in. i've tried the front ---> neutral, rear ---> neutral, rear ---> low, attempt to put front in while fiddling with the tranny and no luck. also tried shifting front case to low first, with rear in N but no movement on the front stick.
PO said he used to put the front case in low before the rear. i have tried applying some pressure to the rear shifter while it's in neutral to see if that helps...no luck. also tried rolling slowly forward while trying to shift, rolling slowly in reverse while trying to shift...both to no avail.
at this point it looks like I will have to drop the case to figure out what's goin on. any advice for what to look for when I drop the case? it's been a while since I took apart anything other than a yota case...any particular tools or gaskets i'll need, or does everything seal up with RTV? plan is to unbolt from tranny, clean exposed shift rails or any dirt or grime i didn't get off the first time, and bench test until i can get it to work. don't want to get into the internals unless I have to.
