Man that’s real cool!! Now show us how to downshift. Maybe with a 45 foot 5th wheel coming down a pass.

As a CDL driver, that floats. I would not recommend doing this on medium/light duty trucks (unless your synchro's are just shot already). This will just put excess pressure, and wear on your synchro's and cause premature wear/failure. Just use the clutch, saves a lot of stress and money.

I would assume that the previous owner of my 7.3 ZF6 did this "floating gears thing" because the syncros are gone at 300k i feel that its just fine to use the clutch if you know how to drive a manual you wont burn out your clutch shifting through the gears. if you supposedly float gears i just think you are burning out the syncros

i am of the opinion it should be possible to not harm the synchros if your shifts are good. thing is if they are not good itd be possible to burn the synchros without knowing it. you should be also able to do a rev match downshift with neutral and no clutch, (if you are good, synchro or no synchro), applying tension like that till it goes into gear? eh, prob not optimal

As a professional driver don't do this if you're not driving a semi truck transmission it is synchronized which means you're going to fuck up the dog gear you're going to fuck up the synchros You're going to have a really fun time with that The other thing you could fuck up is the transmission forks which you're going to be really pissed off cuz that's very expensive especially in downtime The other thing is yes you can get transmissions that were made for semis that are smaller for pickup trucks if you want to float just get yourself an eaton Fuller transmission that only has one counter shaft instead of two 10 or 13 speed they do make it if you want to do this if not please don't do this you'll regret doing this after a while You're basically missing shifts causing damage semi truck transmissions on the other hand can do it real easy especially if the RPM is just right hell I can shift it smoother than double clutching it the whole way especially in a truck stop so smooth in fact that I had a team driver in the back didn't even realize that we stopped when you team drive in a truck stops you know about it but when you get so smooth between your breaking your acceleration and you're stopping that they don't know that's when you damn good but that was years ago for me

Do not do this on a synchro transmission. If you have a synchro transmission you use the clutch every shift. Only on NON-synchro transmissions should you float gears. Only transmissions I know of that aren’t synchro are on semi’s. This is coming from a diesel mechanic that works mainly on semis.

I learned to drive on my grandad's old '50 Ford 3/4 ton PU with the granny gear 4 speed. No synchros, the ole 'grind me out a pound' tranny that you had to 'double clutch' between gears to down shift it to bring the opposite gears to matching rpm. I got to where I didn't need the clutch either after a few week's experience. See how many kids or young adults these days can even get in one of those and even get it into gear, as shifting it without the clutch is impossible for them. However, even the truckers in the multi speed manuals didn't use the clutch after taking off, they just knew the rpm and sounds to know when to shift.

Im not familiar with doing that on newer vehicles, but holding pressure on an older vehicle will definitely make it grind. You have to get it to the right rpm then change gears on the old ones if you want to shift without the clutch. You'll hear, and sometimes feel a rubbing noise not quite as loud as a hardcore grind of you try to hold against it before you slip it in, and its definitely not good on em.

Congrats on your soon to be worn out syncros.... There is a real difference between a box you should shift without a clutch and one you should shift using the clutch, and that difference is if it has syncros in it. When you are holding tension like that the syncro is working hard until the speed matches...

@@OHHyaKnow I think the big difference is gonna be the heavier weights of the parts that need to be spun up on the Dodge vs the Toyota and/or the particular design of the syncros themselves. I had to take the guts out of a CM4054 from a used parts dealer and put it in a different CM4054 housing for an old GMC dumptruck and those are just steel cups and brass disks for the syncros... The funny thing is, that one from the used parts place was a brand new build... it still had machining marks on the gear teeth. They must not have been able to find the plastic pieces for the shift forks, cause they were missing)

You've done a lot of thing no one else seems to ever do, check and threadlock them. the thing I would say, is if you move the nut, you need to reapply the threadlock. so basically if you have any cause to put a socket on the nut, reapply threadlock. They also do put extra pressure on the wheel bearings and that is because the wheel is further out, it's not like having a deeper wheel, it's like having a longer hub. Some countries it is illegal to run spacers, others jsut discouraged, personally I am in the school or get the correct wheel rather than the spacer, as have seen the results of a wheel falling off and injuring people a few times. I won't run them, but then I run a stock, very capable Land Rovers so no need. as turning circle is adequate and another degree really isn't going to make a whole lot of differnce.

Ha! That certainly was a load on the Taco. That truck had 4.88 gears, a supercharger, and some upgraded suspension. The weight distributing trailer hitch definitely helped as well. I towed that setup to AK and back plus all over the lower 48, never had a problem. On really long, steep grades the manual trans/ transfer case would get pretty warm but never caused an issue. I'm on my third 1st generation tacoma. Had a 97 auto/ V-6, then the 02 manual/ V-6 seen in this video, and now an 04 TRD manual/ V-6. Only upgraded to have a nicer version, never b.c. they gave me problems. VERY reliable trucks, I bet yours would do just fine so long as the maintenance is all up to date. God bless !
