Just replied to a post by BigDogTrucker with his newly acquired B75 with a Quadruplex about the transmission and shifting it....and it inspired me to point out this DVD to everyone. I think its a MUST HAVE for just about everybody in this here fine establishment. Check out this 2 disc DVD by Long Road Productions if you don't already have it. Especially if you are a young buck and didn't grow up driving trucks with two sticks but are dying to know how and to try it. These old timers take the time to talk us through it in this DVD. $25 bucks and its well worth it. Myself and a buddy of mine were taking notes when we watched it.

I have the whole series including the two stick. I bought the two stick at Auburn convention.

Now you need to make one on having 3 sticks. :) Paul

Seems there was a deal if you ordered all the VHS tapes at once. Figured what the hell and did. It's been 10 odd years and I still dig them out and watch them. It's easier to just click on Youtube and catch the clips, but it doesn't hurt to support Lindsay after he went through all the work to make the tapes. I met Lindsay at Auburn when I bought the Twin stick DVD and thanked him for such great work.

Ya, don't go holding your breathe LOL!! I still need to do the math and see what kind of shifting I could actually do. Just guessing, I'm thinking the splits in the aux are the same as my compound box. Kinda making it double reduntant if I try splitting with the aux. Would be cool if it did work out, but not thinking it will.
