504 shifting problems

On my 504, when I have the TA off(forward)It comes out of gear hard. It feels like there is pressure on the gear shift like the tractor still wants to go forward as I am pulling it out of gear. Also, when I shift from reverse to any forward gear with the TA on or off, some times the transmission will lock-up. It feels like the gear shift lever pops out of its slide and I am able to shift to another gear and therefor locking-up the transmission. Other than that, the TA works fine and the clutch works fine and the tractor operates very well. Therefor, I have two questions. (1)Do I have a TA Problem? (2)Do I need to replace my gear shift or the slides in my transmission.

I had similar problems after I replaced the engine and TA clutches and reworked my TA on my Farmall 504 Diesel. I assumed that it was as good as it was going to get. I used it for abot 10 years before I found this site and bought some better manuals than the I&T manual.

When in DD and in gear when I would stop the shifter would "lock up". The only way to get the stick to slide into neutral was to rock the clutch or pull the TA handle into TA.

Found that if you adjust the linkages [b:5a50d041ac]PER THE IH OPERATORS MANUAL[/b:5a50d041ac] it will shift like silk (or as smooth as an IH will shift). If you do not have an IH/Farmall operators manual for your 504 you need to search EBAY. I got mine for about $24. Beat manual I have for general maintenance.

Good luck, Charles
