okay...
fire up the dakota move it outta the way. move the old john deere to find the zed. fire it up back it out to the road.
Drive nice and slow 'till i get to the highway. stop. take off respectfully in first hit 2nd get and let it rip... well try and let it go.
it pops out of gear!, didnt think much of it. put it back in. NODDA! there is no gear. not even reverse.
put it in gear and you can feel the internals doing something, goes for all 6 gears.
hoping its just an axle or something stupid, anyone ever popped an axle and not heard anything?
im gonna have a look at it next week sometime when i have time..
hope you enjoyed the tale-of-the-zed!

Check shifter cables first. They could have just popped off. _________________

heard of this happening before... pass axle popped off the half shaft.. im not 100% sure why. but you know the " cap" between the half and the axle. well i took that off and the axle definatly snapped into place. i dont have the stock bracket on mine. its one i got off ronny, for get what it is exactly.. so we will see what happens this time around folks. _________________
