Spectacular video. As a DIY mechanic and a Jet engine mechanic, much appreciated the methodical and purposeful progression of repair. Your restorative repair as you go along will lead to a very nice functional tractor. Closeups and timing give the viewer a great video that doesn’t bog down.
Interesting work! As for your shifter. There are to ball baring units on each side of the transmission housing. Sometimes probably due to moisture, the ball bearings can slowly rust in place. You can remove the ball bearings’ get rid of the moisture and squirt some bearing grease into the two holes and the ball bearing were move easily and you shifting to your four gears should be easy. Good luck.
I realize now that I should have packed that bearing with grease, since it has an axle seal. I'll do that in the next video.
Love how much you show in these. So many small things that need addressing and the video just rolls one after the other

Is there anything you can't repair??
