    The gearbox oil has become contaminated with water from the oil cooler
    I lost drive forwards and backwards and discovered the problem.
    I have drained the oil from the gearbox, Loads of water came out, Then milky oil.

    I'm I going to have to remove the gearbox and replace the clutch? Or do the clutches in these stand water contamination?

    Cant believe my luck, I always seem to buy a lemon!
    So its not a forward reverse shuttle on that model ? .. If its a clutch, that will be in a separate section forward of the gearbox

      Ahhh! I guess I've just answered my own question. I've found friction material when I've taken the strainer out!

        It is a forward / reverse model. You put it in gear and then there is a forward or reverse stick on the console.

          Old Fordson tractors ran with milky oil in the back end all the time and it never bothered them. They got a lot of condensation inside the gear casing that caused the problem, apart from water ingress round dip sticks etc

          BTW James, I might split this thread off from your welcome post, as any info from here is in the wrong home (just keeps forum tidier for people looking for info)

              Out of curiosity, are you saying that jcb backhoes has a dry clutch when without power shift (or whatever it's called)?

                Well thats how they evolved .. from tractor skid units .. but .. as in the OP's 3CX case I was fairly sure it was a shuttle transmission which he has confirmed
