Don Coatney Posted November 13, 2010 Report Posted November 13, 2010 Forum member Dennis Hemmingway sent me this animation. It is pretty good but unless I am looking at it incorrectly there is a flaw. Anyone else see it? Quote
suntennis Posted November 13, 2010 Report Posted November 13, 2010 The syncros are a bit odd, but the system does show how the gears work basically. Quote
Dodgeb4ya Posted November 13, 2010 Report Posted November 13, 2010 (edited) Thats a old heavy truck trans diagram- The old straight gear trucks use that same type of large "clutch gear" teeth. Ya gotta double clutch with those big clutch gear teeth. They did not have syncro's in most of the old truck tansmissions. I give up-don't see the problem!

Dodgeb4ya Posted November 13, 2010 Report Posted November 13, 2010 (edited) The red countershaft is just free spinning though-no transmission of power-should not have been red. Good job Don! Jesus I hate it when I lose! Edited November 14, 2010 by Dodgeb4ya Quote
