Subject: The old Ford F-800 tandem had that.


Wisconsin
The worst I felt about it was it was a gas engine. The tranny like other's said put in 1-2 in the main gearbox work up the five and then use under and overdrive 3-4. If you drive it by slitting and running both you get nice sound's and look like an octopus and really isn't much faster. Also never ever force the four speed if the tranny is cold get it warmed slowly and if you miss a shift start over. If you force it you will be stopped until you crawl under it and pry the gear's apart. I coasted a couple times to the side of the road and started over cause I was warned about prying and I wasn't doing that ever.
