I agree with Chris.  That was my experience.  Now I have a cluster gear paper weight.

My money is on a broken/ missing tooth on the 1st/ reverse idler. On the reverse side.

And some collateral damage on 1st on the cluster/ 1st slider gear. 

Love to hear the outcome of the autopsy. 

Good luck, and carefully check/ strain the contents of the oil before removal. 

Best

Chris

I have a very loud banging noise in my gearbox in reverse (1960 BT7 w/overdrive) It's much less noticeable in first and second and I cannot hear it at all in third and fourth. Also, the O/D started working intermittently and now it's not working 

at all. The O/D cut out switch on the gearbox is working properly. I'm planning on pulling the gearbox out and I think I can get it out from above.

 

Does anyone have any ideas about what might be causing the noise? What should I be looking for when I get it out? Thanks.

 

Regards,
