Transmission ID?

The girlfriend is a driver. There's a few trucks she runs regularly, one is a 99 international, triaxle dump truck. n14 Cummins, 13 speed. Range switch and splitter on the side like normal. What's messing me up is she says it's got a high Lo gear.

R-1-3
L-2-4
------
R-5-7
H-6-8

And obviously 5 thru 8 are split hi/Lo. I watched her shift it a few times and it confused the heck outta me, because she claimed to start in high range but put it where Lo gear is. If anybody's got ideas I'm dying to know. I got a video somewhere if needed.

 

Right, I know that, I've got a fairly good handle on how most transmissions work (10, super10, 13, 14, 15, 18 etc) but when she takes off, she puts it in high range, but has the stick all the way left, and back: where Lo gear should be. I've never heard of that being available before.



Pardon her language first of all...but in about the first 15-20 seconds you can see her shifting what looks like Lo thru 4th, but it's in high range.

 

No kidding. I learned something new today too then. So it's like a easy 14 speed I guess. We're both from Ontario Canada

 

Hi, I'm the girlfriend. I tried to explain to him that the truck was geared super low and that I only use the bottom box when I'm loaded and then I usually start in second. First and low low is basically turtle speed, and I can walk faster then the low low. Thanks for helping him figure it out.
