53 ford OD issues on issues
So I have a 53 flathead with a 3 on the tree and a Borg Warner r10 OD. Everything worked great until. One day it suddenly dropped out of OD and made a horrible whining noise when the OD was mechanically engaged. I manually disengaged it and drove home normally. I recently removed the trans and with the help of the a YouTube video, a pdf file and many exploded digrams set out to fix it. Well that was cut short by me not being able to separate the OD from the case. I removed the lockout lever pin and the lever will not come all the way out of the case. According to exploded diagram it doesn't look like it can but in instructions it shows it does. Beyond that, with the lockout lever pulled out the 3/4" it will the OD will seperate but not pull out more than 1/4" I've tried to force it but I don't want to damage it. I'm already something inside that caused it to break has jammed up the clutch part into the plantary gears or something and they are jammed together. Not sure what to do from here. Any tips or reading materials would be helpful. I've spend hours digging up info but can find anyone with an issue like this. Everyone seems to simply just pull them apart.

Re: 53 ford OD issues on issues
Mondays are always busy days on the phones but give us a call. I’m going to suggest that you purchase a reprint of the 49-54 transmission service, which covers the OD version very well. You’ve just begun the process and there are other techniques you’re going to need to follow for the rest of the job. We’ve got the reprints in stock to order.
