    Allison does in fact use a torque converter. Or did. Can't say I have worked on any in a few years.

    I'm of the mindset that you do what the situation requires to properly do the job.

    Allisons do have torque converters as always. Local customer had one in an ISX powered W900.

    They put it up for sale early covid for 50k$ and 300k ish miles. I test drove it (bobtail) for another customer and it was nice. No issues.

    Not sure what it finally sold for, but they couldn't get 50k

    Ok, after 2012 ish I have no idea. I serviced some bigger units in trash, and dumps. But that was my experience. Took care of maybe 13 medium duty tow trucks. The medium duty allison was about bullet proof. Especially incomparaison to the 6+1 spicers that drivers destroyed clutches in. Mostly resting foot on pedal and not knowing how to drive.

    My 01 had an autoshift, still had clutch pedal. Obviously it was doing all the shifting without using the clutch. It was smooth as silk 99% of the time. But every once and awhile it would do weird stuff and I'd pull over to make sure the back half of the truck was still connected
