We are in the process of replacing the shift cover of our 2240 (SN: 179xxx) due to the snap ring groove wearing out and not holding the left (hi-low-park-reverse) shifter in place. We have a new cover ($500!!) and we removed the old one today. When we looked under the cover, we saw that the stamped steel portion of the Park/Reverse shift shaft was broken and missing a tab that holds a small spring and engages with the shifter. We also found the spring and a small shim loose near the shift shafts.
Do we need to split the tractor to replace this shaft? Would removing the top cover under the seat give us access to the forks etc?
I will add some photos tonight.
