Question C-6

Please help guys.......

My transmission will not go into gear. I can shift the automatic shift selector from one drive all the way to 1 with no response. I checked the linkage at the steering shaft and it is moving. The truck acts like it is in neutral the whole way through the shifting. When I get it back to Park it makes a grinding noise. This is on a 1978 F-150 4x4 with a c-6.

Please help me on this......very very frustrated.

Thanks,

grif95

Is the transfer case in neutral? It would grind going into park if the output shaft is turning. Did this start suddenly?

Thank you. I will check this out. I do remember moving the shifter while working on another area of the truck. Knowing me I have mis, momentary ignorance syndrome...... I probably did not get it fully engaged back into 2wd. I will check this tomorrow....
