Case W36 has no neutral position.

I'm working on a Case W36 wheel loader that seems to have no true neutral. Forward works normally, reverse works normally, but neutral feels like it's partially engaged in reverse, which makes the machine unsafe to operate.

I'm planning to do the rear brakes first, but I'm wondering if this could be a linkage adjustment issue or possibly a sticking spool valve.
 
I’d start by checking the linkage adjustment first since it’s usually the easiest thing to rule out. If everything looks properly adjusted, then I’d inspect the spool valve for sticking. Please let us know what you find after checking it. Good luck!
 
I'd start with the linkage adjustment before digging into the valve. That neutral issue definitely needs sorting out.
 
Good advice above. I'd get the brakes sorted first for safety, then check the linkage adjustment and inspect the spool valve if the issue remains.
