Default Re: OD not working on '53 Ford 3-spd w/R10

The shift rail is just that. It engages the sun gear to the planetary. Pulling it out disengage the planetary and locks to the outer gear which bypasses the roller sprag or freewheeling unit. It shouldn't free wheel in lock out. It has to freewheel in overdrive or it won't shift.
