@Anthony K. - 100% the best comment I've ever read. I've been a trucker for *AGES NOW* and I despise two things. 1.) guys who leave their jake brake on *ALL THE TIME* especially when up-shifting. It sounds like trash and it decelerates the truck partial each time it kicks in no matter how fast of a shifter you are. 2.) Extended shifters like this or guys whose eyes are level with the dash in a truck because they are sitting on the floor. *IDIOTS* - Trucking is a career. Quit trying to look cool. Just do your f___ing job!!

Near as I can tell your running on flat land so why the need for the brake all the time. But that said for everyone on here who thinks this is great working of gears try a 5 speed main and 4 speed aux gear box.

As a trucker of over 25 years and having run 110,000+ Lbs loads from the Atlantic to the Pacific and vice versa I can assure you that you don't need jakes.

So how does your shifting works, because almost and the end i saw that when you change gears you're not moving the shifter?

[@muddy.waterz]

Cody Albert 18 speed, u have your high and low range and he can split each gear in high and low range so let's say you are in high range 5th gear for example he can hit the switch with his thumb on the side of the shifter while off the throttle and depending on what way he moves the switch give him a high and low range in just that gear if this makes any sense

[@Itsjustanelantra]

Patrick Mcginn Thats why he can shift faster

[@muddy.waterz]

Cody Albert that's how he can shift without actually taking it out of gear which is what you asked

[@Itsjustanelantra]

Patrick Mcginn I really don't know much about how these transmission works, but you gave me some good answers about it

[@wreck_ignition7847]

+Cody Albert Regarding your question about how the transmission works. An 18 speed has 6 physical shifter positions. The vertical selector is for high/low, the side selector is to split those gears. Both the high/low and splitter are plumbed into the pneumatic system. When you flip one of these switches, it uses air pressure to slide gears in and out of the rotation. 3 of the gears are for reverse so you are essentially driving a 15 speed. Having 5 (forward) physical gear selection slots, you are now driving a 5 speed. Each of these 5 speeds have a high and a low (1-5 low, 6-10 high) that can be split with the side selector.

Turn the Jakes off slow the hell down and shorten that unless tall shifter down. He wouldn't need the jake on so much if he slowed that rig down. He just a rookie trying to look cool.
