I have an older (mid 90s?) JD 4x6 diesel Gator
Currently, it is popping out of gear; always uphill, usually under load, only in forward. I tried adjusting the linkage and that helped a little, but not much. I removed the linkage completely and shifted by hand and it still does this. When I shift, there is a loosness that is not to be had on my other Gator. Also, I can notice the shaft that the clutch is on moves in and out a bit. THis does not occur on my other Gator.
I assume a rebuild is required, but the manual does not indicate what is likely to be wrong and therefore, what parts I might need.
I assume. if I am going this far, I should replace the brake discs in the transaxle
There does not seem to be a great deal of difference in transaxles from model to model; can I simply swap tranaxles?
Any constructive thoughts or ideas on this matter will be appreciated.

A good friend and I were recently discussing our tractor electrical systems when he stated "I figure it all comes back to applying Ohms Law". At this point
