I purchased this forklift at a Auction. It will only go forward. If I put it in neutral it still goes forward and if I put it in reverse it will not move. Almost like it is in forward and revers at the same time. I have been told that the forward clutch is locked up. Is there anything else I should check before I pull the transmission out??? The only testing I have done so far is to unplug both shift solenoids. It did not change anything.

Second question. What is the best way to pull the transmission out??
