Yeah, it's time to hop on the Lucas red n tacky train. I should have picked that up a long time ago.
Time to tear this truck down and rebuild!

You will figure it out for sure. I would avoid grease on the pins that engage the foward/reverse gears. I'm sure you noticed that 90%of the grease on the chain drive was flung off the gears and chain. The Lucas red and tacky is like stepping on gum on a hot side walk!!!!Shout out to you ShadOman .....WHAZUPPP!!!
Thanks for sharing the pictures. If I’m seeing correctly it does appear that the springs can’t overcome the grease resistance on the pins.
As Mick shared, I too methodically grease as needed with red grease and items such as the pins that need to allow sliding freely a thin film.
Your patience will produce great results.

I got the transmission all cleaned up and applied the red n tacky. It is working flawlessly now. I notice a huge difference between the red and green.
Great update and good job.

Progress! Getting it all back together... slowly.
