what exactly do you wanna know I've driven all kinds of macks but the 13 speed was an o5
-
you basically have reverse (hi,lo) low then 1-4 flip it up and you have hi,lo in 5-8
-
like a 10 speed is 1-5,hit the splitter 6-10,i noticed the gear shifter has the splitter and a red switch on the gear shifter also
-
well kinda but you'll split after 4th and the red splitter is for your hi lo 5-8. when you reach your Rpm red switch up let off accelarator then hit accelarator again and it will catch your next gear. then when you reach RPM red switch down and hit 6 and so on so on. Its easy man you dont have anymore holes just more splitter action
-
It is a 9 speed pattern. 1-5 on the low side. Then 6-9 you can split hi-low by using the red button. It is not difficult. If you understand a 9 speed pattern you will pick up on how to split 6-13 fairly quickly. Just remember to pre select your gears.
You have the capability of HI or LOW range in the upper gears by using the red switch . -
ya I wasn't sure on the 93 but I know on the 05 you can split 5th also. But you explained it better lol thanks ampm

-
yes sir, they count your lo as 13 so its 1-4 then 5-8 hi-lo but like I said I'm not sure bout the 93

P.S I like the Mack on your profile.
