Could of got a new one for that price.
Going to take it back to the trans place today.
Something is warn out inside.if it gets stuck in 1st gear (2xnow) and having a difficult time getting it into reverse.
Wish it was something simple, but it must not be.
I let every one know what I find out in a week or so.
It least I can drive it to town (almost 90 mi).
Thought I might have to have it hauled over there when it was locked in 1st gear.

Sorry, Bud - but for that price you could have gotten an AX-15 & transfer case, probably installed, and gotten rid of the whole damned problem...

(I make no bones about it - the BA-10/5 bites big wind. The sole & only saving grace was that I could pick them up just for the askin' - I went through four of the damned things before I finally got my grubby little paws on an AX-15...)
