how to shift a international durastar with eaton 10 speed

On a public forum whats worse the bully or the crybaby
This a Trucking Forum which is already pathetically sanitary at times,why push for sterile ? Get over yourself,life in 2010 is PISSEDOFFNESS !!

 

Personally, I take off in 2nd gear. I was taught to use this. I push the clutch no more than 2in when double clutching.

2nd? Ive been taught to take off in LO or in 1st. Not 2nd. When you can take off in 1st is when your empty or bobtail. But what do i know.

 

The "add the digits" rule works up to 55 mph...15mph=6, 25mph=7, 35 mph=8, 45mph=9, 55 mph =10....simple just add the digits...up to 55, as I showed..15/25/35/45/55...not the oddball speeds use the "5's".

 

Good post Otherhalf! I was sitting here reading this thread and saying to myself, "self," (I said,) "it would be easy to SHOW the OP how to do the shifting thing, but how the hell do you communicate it in words."

Then you came along with your post, and did just that!

 

Luis,

Thats what I was taught. I use 1st for bobtail.

Seems hard when you explain it even harder when your sitting in the truck trying to find first or LO. I couldn't find it one day when i was going to move it. Got out asked dad all nervous hey i can't find lo he told me let out the clutch just a bit and you'll find it. Seems hard when you see someone and you keep thinking to yourself how will i be able to do that.

 

Heck before ya know it. you will be able to grab six or seven gears in the Hooks parking lot with no problem at all.
