Sounds like a process of elimination

if you cruising along can u take the stik out of gear as in nuetral

let the engine go to idle revs

then rev upto the same revs as when U hit neutral

and the gear stik should slide back in to the same cog

no need for clutch on this proceedure

When we converted 1000x20 to 11R22.5

we also ran tubed and tubless side by side in a dual set up with no worries

the Diameter is the same and no worse than running different treads, wear, PSI etc

the cost of tubleless is a lot cheaper than tubed + Tube + rust band

Me thinks

normally U lift handle to open

push down on handle to lock

sometimes if the handle has been pushed down & thru lack of use being locked can cause trouble unlocking

we never lock our trucks

that way we get longr life outa the key and lock barrel

cya

MRS

U got your ears on

If U hang up with a folding gooseneck

unlock both gooseneck locking arms

Drive forward and it can lift the deck

it will either get U going or U will be hung up worse

dependin on how bad the hump is

have dun it many times ovr the years

LOL

the early maxidynes with a 5 speed relied on a good clutch brake to kill revs Btween gears

the next V: they used the engine brake to kill the revs and do a quik shift. U could pull the gear lever stright thru ,It twas the next best thing to a automatic

U did half the gear changes compared to a screemer /road ranger set up

The late 60's we fitted jake brakes to B61 mack with Quadbox ....most effective in saving brakes as most Lowboys of th@ era had air over Hyd brakes

thinkn way back wen Engine brakes produced ruffly 90% of retardation power of the engine HP

rule of thumb twas wot ever gear U pull a load/hill U could go down the hill with the same load & gear with only lightly fannin the brakes to control the rev speedmy tax my taz free info for the day

RE: Back when two stacks were closer to the center of the cab for a reason other than looks

Originally the KW 1/2 truck had a V6-71 and th@ put the winch hard up against the cross over exhaust to our passenger side of cab

when we shoe horned the V8 in it worked out easier to run the exhaust straight back and up each side of the winch

with 2 mufflers it did not quient the beast down so to Answer the Q: the exhausts are inline with the exhaust manifold outlet
