2008 honda Rubicon problem!

You could try to force it in both directions. Don't mar the case where the control motor slips into though, while prying on the gear. If you are lucky just a swash plate driver shaft bearing is jammed and it will free up. I'm thinking one of the transmission's hydralic pistons is stuck though. Luck be on your side now. Even if you drain the oil and find no metal shavings, they can still be in there. On many I have torn down, the metal shavings and light tan neopreme components from inside the tranny will be deposited in the rear bearing of the transmission assembly. The end bearing of the hydromatic is shared with the mainshaft of the sub-transmission. The 'guts' of the hydromatic unit normally deposit in this spot first when the unit goes bad.
If you attempt to tear down the engine, a special clutch puller will be needed to pull the centrifugal clutch assembly from the crankshaft.
.... and a lot of time

Got the extended warranty ??

If you have a good Honda dealer, the unit is not beat to crap, low miles etc... They may be able to get the district service rep to authorize a 'good will' warranty for the repair if no extended warranty exists

The unit was designed to last way longer than that. Even if you contacted a Honda dealer, this is a valid point. They may settle for a parts/labor split also. Worth calling the dealer to see if they will work with you. Also you can drop a nice note to Honda asking for help.
