    shifting a 5 and 4

    Is it a Mack? Then the 5 and 4 are pretty std and nothing fancy. NO, you don't need to shift BOTH at the same time. Save that for after you get the hang of it. Shift the main, then come back and shift the compound.

    If it's any other brand, YES, there are different 5 spds. Some are regular 5 spd, some have 5th gear up/over to the left instead of the std position.

    Get on Youtube and search quad box or twin stick shifting and you'll see quite a few variations. Something to chew on til you need to do it yourself.
