Need help bought tractor told all good..won't go in park synchronize transmission. I also notice level pops put of snail. All other gears are perfect. Not feeling safe without park

Sounds like the linkage may be out of adjustment.

How would that be adjusted?

Not sure since I got rid of my 5310 I don't have a tech manual any longer. It may require splitting if there's not an access cover. After thinking about it I'm not sure the sync shuttle has external linkages. It may all be internal.

Oh boy big project guess I got taken again. Thank you!

Park pawl could also be broken. This can happen if operator put the tractor in park when it is still moving/rolling.

Think we found problem today. So my lever won't go over to park. It's like something is stopping it. Took shifter out checked pins than took top off and found the long rod that shift in is locking the rod so it won't mover all the way over to park. A little ball popped out what is that piece called. When I moved the rod it felt like it was stuck so I rolled the rod felt a click and it released it to extend fully. Could someone messed it it and that little piece is backwards.
I can't find specs on it

What transmission do you have? There are three.
Is it the range lever that puts it in park?
