Re: Transmissions: General Info
every time we decide to have a two speed transmission we have used pneumatics. for example last year it was a great help as we could drive around very quick collecting and shooting but when balancing came we could shift to low speed and make very small adjustments without rolling of the bridge either. our lead engineer has developed a very good transmission that we used. the pneumatic shifter works very well as just a click of a button will change gears. it has worked wonders for us.
here is a post to the white pages on the gearbox:
