5x4 you DO NOT USE LO LO when splitting main box gears. Under-direct-over for every main box gear, 4th lo lo or 4 and 1 is a lower ratio than 3rd overdrive or 3 and 4

Looks like a 3-speed range stick making it a 3 x 5?

No, married 5x4 1st the auxiliary is a very deep gear and you do not use it to split main box gears, under-direct-over for every main box gear with the exception of 5th in this particular trans 4th over to 5th over is one up shift. 4th over to 5th under would actually be a down shift and mack says not to use 5th under due to excessive stress and heat on the gears

You could have gotten 8 gears buy going into 3rd high on your split; the data plate speeds would agree All the manual transmissions whether on a deuce or a 5-ton and even the 10 ton will give you 8. The 10 tons were a real bitch to get into gear if the clutch brake was out of adjustment especially if going up hill as low geared as they were

Nice old school shifting guy. Your not having fun unless you have one hand through the spokes on the steering wheel. I used to drive a bed trucks in the oil patch in Canada. 5 &4 main and auxiliary with a jake break. Ah the younger wilder days. Not many guys around that can understand that let alone shift one as smoothly as you do. Respect. Of coarse the real challenge is pulling a hill loaded and being as smooth. 1981 Autocar 400 cumins 6&4 6 wheel drive sow bedtruck. Norman Wells North West Territories Canada. 85-87💪

Yeah that used motor oil thins out and all ya gotta do is filter it in a 1 micron filter and it technically can run as diesel. I saw a guy mix vegetable oil and turpentine in a 1 to 1 ratio and run it in one of these multi fuel engines. I love this technology.

B53 Mack’s exclusively used for mixer trucks I drove a 1964 b81 tandem dump endt 673 with a 18 spd quad box during the blizzard of 96 here in New Jersey for 3 days splitting the driving with a buddy of mine I would rather drive an old truck like that everyday than anything new no character in these new trucks today

it's been about 8 yrs ago but I tried this on a steep hill, worked good. the transmission has too big of a split between 3rd and 4th gear if I remember correctly. After two deuces, I went to M923A2, 5ton with Allison automatic, OMG are those nice, power steering two and top speed 63 mph. Could drive to a parade or event even on the interstate. My deuces I would do 55 but they seemed happy about 45 mph.
