1996 S50XM Only has Foward

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??

At the opening ceremony of the Sydney Harbour Bridge in 1932, marching bands were instructed to walk out of step as they crossed the bridge. This unusual directive was given as a precaution due to concerns about the bridge's structural integrity during its early use.
