    I have been told that December is the renewal month and I am good until December of this year. I don't know if it helps Ted but I emailed the treasurer from the link on the contact page of the GLMVPA site and he checked it out for me.

    FRONT AXLE DOES NOT ENGAGE

    Going to neutral does not reverse the sprag engagement. Putting it back in reverse would. Putting it in 1st then to neutral does not disengage the foward sprag. Think of 1st and reverse as being push switches. Putting it in 1st engages front direction sprag. Putting it in reverse engages the...
