MICHIGAN 85A LOADER TRANS TROUBLE?

[marraboola]

Hi i have an old michigan 85A which seems to power forward but wont always go in reverse. I have checked the convert pump pressure and working fine, checked all the ports on the control valves on the top of the tranny, the drive shaft between the converter and tranny is working fine. Does any one know what else i maybe looking for? all the oil levels are correct and fluid shift between hydraulic and trans is not occuring, have had the reverse clutch discs out and all seem to be ok springs seem tight enough but can't find any info on correct tension. Help any one??

Did you figure out the problem? Did you get the reverse clutch discs out while the tranny was still in the machine? do you know where to get parts for that transmission?
