I don't think this has been posted. I think the coolest part starts right around 2:34, when it shows the shifting. 8)

This one is cool too. I think t would be cool to learn how to drive a twin stick.

If your used to big trannys it would come easy to you. The biggest problem with those trucks is they had no power and you could not downshift quick enough on hills. You had to get used to skipping gears. If the trucks had good power then they would be much better to drive. When my dad first drove trucks you were lucky to have 190 hp. He drove one and he used to put his arm through the spokes in the steering wheel when he had to move both sticks. We have 4 different big trucks and of coarse all of them have different shift paterns. We have a 8LL, 9 speed, Super 10, and a 13 speed. my favorite is the 8LL. It shifts the best of all ours. I have never driven a twin stick but would love to try. :D CCCCCRRRRRUUUUUNNNNCH GGGGGGGGRRRRRIIIIND. :lol:

Twin sticks a piece of cake. He was running empty and shifted to 4th then the aux down from hi to low. You only need to reach thru the wheel when you're split shifting from 3rd high to 4th low when you're loaded and/ or on a hill. You need to be pretty quick then. The rest of the time you can skip thru and make it work.
You really want to have fun, try a 318 detroit in front of a quad box. All you do is shift, and really fast too! :lol:

I never trust the systems. I had a dozer with it and I took the can out of it. I like the can in hand method. I then know hom much is going in. I have found with the 6x16's the truck will not start unless I cycle the grids. I can see why you would need ether.

A lot of the older Case machines had it. It only gives a premeasured shot each time you hit the button. They were also wired so it only worked when you're cranking the engine.
Now, if the unit stuck open, :shock:
