Go to Post There is something completely respectful and amazing to see FIRST teams who have members go through 4 years of the program without winning a single competition or even a single award. Those are the teams that are looked at by others and respected for what they do. - fuzzwaz [more]

You must be joking. I suppose if one of those teams that can afford to live in a machine shop could do it, but there's not that good of a reason. Either you push or you zoom. Chances are your bot only has to do one of these during the match depending on its design. And I know our team isn't going to waste the valuable servo/pump to hook up the system.
For that matter, if you're asking that question this late, chances are you're pretty screwed.
Just so you know, you should check the white papers on this site.

There are a number of gear switching desings that are posted on there... from numerous teams. Our team has posted 3 separate designs (with all details included) that shows the design of a gear shifting system. 2 include shifting while stopping and 1 includes shifting while moving. We have published one design during each of the last 3 summers, and these designs have been downloaded thousands of times.

We've been shifting gears since '99 and we will be again this year.
