    Finally got some free time to get some work done on the cabover so i took it for a drive around the building. When in high gears it takes a little longer to split than rtlo models is this normal?
    RTOs are new to me i tired to take the splitter cylinder off but i believe that the auxiliary needs to be apart since there is no nut like on the rtlo models, the shaft is held in place in by a bolt with a lock wire and the o rings are inside another 4 bolt housing. If it requires taking the auxiliary apart i'm just gonna run it til it quits and hopefully put a rtlo after christmas

    I wouldn't consider it normal, but it's performance is likely to improve with some regular use. A little O-ring lube might help the cause. You might also check the line connections for restriction, they commonly get cinched down a little too tight and delay the shift.

    Sounds more like low line pressure to the splitter valve. When my orings were leaking it would push it out of OD a couple of times after going into OD, alost like the clutch was slipping.
