Pulled the fender pan this morning, great having a shed! Like Roland said, pictures really help so here ya go! All hydro linkage appears tight, no binding that I can find. Note the space in the "bow tie" at the trunion, (4th picture). Also note the rectangle that the trunion pins and springs fit in. Another thing, the rod that goes from the shifter cross shaft to the hydro linkage. The top swivel joint is on the right and the bottom swivel joint is on the left. Looks to me like the top should be on the left also, but both my 1450s are set up like this. From what I see, the rod that goes from the shifter cross shaft to the hydro linkage needs to be adjusted to get the shifter into the proper neutral position, (gate?), but I can't figure out which end to adjust. When I loosen the lock nut and turn the rod, either forward or reverse will be in the proper neutral position and the other won't. If you remember, the bottom joint was on the right also, but I moved it to the left to match 1450 #1.
