NP205 Locked up??

I bought an NP205 for a project I'm working but I think it might be broken. I have taken the cross bar off so each shifter rod can be moved independently. I have tried every combination of shifts but I can't get it to go into 2wd. I get 4hi 4low and N but can't get the front yoke to disengage. If I push the shifter rod for the front yoke in the entire case locks up and none of the 3 yokes can be turned at all(like a parking brake).

Any ideas on what could be wrong? Am I just missing something stupid???

Any ideas? Basicly when I try to push the shift rod for FWD in(to put it in N) the entire case locks up.

Sounds like a 2 gear lockup to me. A gasket kit for a np205 can be had for less than $30. Take it apart and find out!
