How do you shift a shift on a 18 speed transmission?

The 18 speed transmission is laid out in an ‘H’ pattern. The easiest way to become familiar with the 18 speed is to practice shifting in an H pattern. The driver uses second, third, fourth, and fifth, then splits up into high range. Then, shift the H pattern again for sixth, seventh, eighth and ninth gear.

Do you have to shift gears on 18 speed transmission?

Drivers who like floating gears should like the 18 speed, as 12 of the 18 gears available do not require moving the shifter, as they are split gears.

What’s the best way to shift an 18 speed?

Where are the gears in an overdrive transmission?

But overdrive transmissions were offered with the last two gears positions reversed. For example, an overdrive RTO-14610 transmission manual would have 9th gear in the lower right hole and 10th gear in the upper right hole whereas the direct RT-14610 transmission would have those gears in their regular positions.
