    Hi

    Iv a David Brown 1490, Manual Gearbox.

    The LOW-HIGH levers (2 small levers at the left hand side, across from the clutch) have gone solid stiff.

    Got progressively worse over the years, and now can hardly move them at all - nearly breaking the gear sticks at this stage

    Any ideas how to fix - or what the problem is?

    Dive in between the floor of the cab and the g'box, check the linkage as it goes across and down on to the top of the box.

    If you can't see anything wrong there take off the top where the lever goes into the box and pull it out to have a look, you'll have to disconnect the linkage to be able to pull it out into the fresh air..
