Twin sticking in street truck....
 

I know there was some videos posted up at one time but NOW you can have one in your street truck if you own a ford or chevy (or something with a ford 4 speed or Chevy 4 speed or NV4500)

Ranger Overdrive

Here is how it would go if you had a NV4500:

Start out with the tranny in 1st/low and the splitter in 1:1, start accelerating, now shift the splitter into OD, accelerate more, now up shift the tranny into 2nd and down shift the splitter to 1:1, accelerate more, shift the splitter into OD, accelerate more, now up shift the tranny into 3rd and down shift the splitter box into 1:1, accelerate more, now upshift the tranny into 4th, accelerate more, now shift the splitter box into OD, accelerate more, now upshift the tranny into 5th and down shift the splitter box into 1:1, now accelerate more, now up shift the splitter box into OD.......you are now in Double Overdrive......

like a five speed two speed rear. i always liked them. logan have you ever drove the ones with the first three split like a super ten and four and five split after. 1/2, 3/4, 5/6, 7th shift 8th, split, back to four (9th), shift to top (10th) i had a seven yard dump with one and a 454 gasser

This could be a hot item for the pullers!

would probaly work good pulling as long as it has no lag between shifts or if you dont have to get out of the throtle like in a semi splitig low to hi

hmmm. this would give me a theoretical top speed of 145 mph :tttt:

80 at 1500 rpm. that'd be sweet. :U:

Would they handle the tq of a pulling truck?

You cant shift a manual anyway Ashley, I meant it would be nice to have a gear in between gears to fine tune the truck, yuo know 3rd low might be to low but 4th low might be to high, just split em!

Only one way to find out! :U:

we might be seeing a few more impressive trucks for the l&n crew pretty sooon :evil:

find a semi truck with a super ten. thats what you would have. most truck drivers hate the super ten, slow spits, but i love them. high over drive and lazy gear changes. you only have to move the shifter four times for ten gears

These have been out for a very...long...time...over 15 years.

We put one in a Jeep in 1994...back in high school. They work great but don't have the torque capacity to live well behind a diesel, especially a hot one.

oh i would definately buy one if i had a street truck with a manual in it.....just for the cool factor.......

the only thing i have thats a manual tranny is my blazer with a SM465....

im sure with a little beefing it would work but for a diesel i think one of their Klune V goliath boxes would work better.....

I read a thread on pirate by a guy that did a high budget build and got the Klune and said it was a total pile and wish he just went with a standard doubler setup.

ive always heard good things, but when i yank the body off my blazer and tube it, and do 1 tons and link suspension im going to throw a 203/205 doubled case in it with twin sticks.....i think after i get back to iraq from this vacation im going to have my dad pull the engine in the blazer and build a stroker motor for it......the floor in mine is junk, he should be fixing it right now so i can play with it saturday night at the mud pit.....
