For two weeks I had a soft clunck sound in tranny like a bearing or something...Checked the drain plug for water/ice-no sign.Today, while warming up on first push of snow, it stalled. Got another "clunk / grind" sound in all gears and it stalls. Bound? Not sure if because it's not warmed up, both wheels in small rut and / or bound? It pushed ok in neutral. Never had cover off. If you have, any tricks, tips or ideas to get me started? I'm not giving up on my girl yet!
 
I hope you are right and that's all it is!! I realize the cold snap we are in- I just never had this problem. She stays in an unheated barn. But can an ice chunk jam in her gears? I'll look into heating the tranny before tare down. THANK YOU!!!!!
 
A bearing is likely with the prior sound. Tearing off the top will tell the tale. It could be an easy repair if no further effort is made to make it go. A needle or ball between gears will ruin parts radically. Look at every tooth on every gear from root to crest. Look at all bearings input , trans pilot, and rear main as well as the countershaft ball bearings. Rear bull gear ball bearings also can wedge between the pinion and bull gear, or the bull and case. Do not force anything. Best of luck. Jim
