Re: Ford T8D-1 shift pattern
Is that the non-synchro truck 4-sp? If so,

Re: Ford T8D-1 shift pattern
Are you pushing down on the reverse lockout lever?

Re: Ford T8D-1 shift pattern
The 4 Speed shift pattern in the Tonner looks like this Reverse is all the way to the right and down. To put it into reverse you have to lift the lever up on the shift arm.

Re: Ford T8D-1 shift pattern
depending upon the year of the shift "tower" you may not have a reverse lock out lever that is pulled up. during ww2 the army had ford remove the lock out lever. we recently had a 4 speed in a 39 lock up in the shift tower--rusty-crusty, cleaned all this up and would still not shift into 3/4, turned out the gear was frozen on the shaft in the trans
