That 8n is a straight stick , no linkages, it's a direct conection into the trans. I'm a John Deere man, but the same shifting problems still apply.
With the age of the tractor, the reverse gear is a shared forward gear, look at your shifting pattern is 1st above reverse? That pattern will use a forward gear and use a reversing side shift gear to change directions.
With age those gears will get worn, from years of grinding, no syncro's. here. When they start popping out , time to fix, you can try to hold them in for awhile till you find parts.
Note to "ompie and bad" these are tractor's were talking about, handed down from father to son, and again. The tractor is a part of the family, my John Deere model B will be handed down to my grandchildren, and it still runs. (answered by jacksparrow on March 09, 2007)
