Re: Transmission troubles
Most likely 3rd + 4th gears are burned up from a TV cable that is out of adjustment. Repair or replace.

Re: Transmission troubles
Did the rearend rotate so the pinion is pointing up a bit after you took off the arm?
Re: Transmission troubles
no it was pointing down and i figured it out i needed to put my jack stands under the frame and then jack up the front of my rear end and then the arm went on with no problem thanks
