    Second Gear

    Yes it didnt make a differance.In the past 7 or 8 months Ive had the truck.I have tried differant RPMS.Slow,fast,soft,hard shifts.Now that Im using 1st gear more when I go in 2nd it some times catches the 2nd gear tooth not good.Very rare it goes in smooth.So either way If I keep shifting from...

    The more I drive the truck now Im using first gear more.But it is still hard to get it in 2nd gear.I never had a manual trans this bad to shift.But it still works.

    Second Gear

    I have to bring the throttle up a little. And then I let out on the clutch to match the fell of the truck.Theres been times I didnt get the RPM up just right and it will start to buck a little.SoI push the clutch down a little, and do it again.But when you drive one for awhile with experience...

    Im trying to understand your shifting RPM. Man that sounds high to shift.I took a good look at my RPM today.I shifted between 1800 to 2100 RPM on every shift.And 2100 RPM on the engine sounds alot to me.Maybe im not reading your post right on shifting RPM.

    When I drove today, I took of in 2nd gear all day.I cant go back to 1st gear.I drove my deuce reg. and bobbed with 46 inch tires.I cant take off in 1st gear etheir way.In my opinion there is not enough momentum to go from 1st to 2nd.Did they ever put lower gears in some deuces.It takes off so...

    Ive seen alot of people that use these trucks as mud boggers,stump pullers,creek crossers,hill climbers,snowmobles,and try to pull anything out that they can.That could be a couple reasons why they go out.Then a couple weeks down the road the trans goes out.Then say they been driving it lke an...

    Another thing I found out about my tranny is. When I have the engine running with the clutch in. When I go from 4th to 5th gear sitting still wait about 3 sec,I cant get it out of 5th gear.I have to let out on the clutch a little and apply the cluch again.Its only 5th gear only.It does it every...

    I tried today to take off in 1st gear all day.I cannot get enough momentum to finally get it in 2nd gear,im barely moving to justify doing it.It seems 2nd gear fights to go in when I go from 1st to 2nd.The other gears are fine going in.

    I dont like to sit at a stop light very long with my foot on the clutch.Trying not to wear out the thout bearing.A lot of times I take it out of gear way before I stop at the stop sign,and just roll up to it.Then when I try to put it second it sometimes does not want to go in.

    Second Gear

    I have a 46 inch tire bobbed deuce.I take off in second gear instead of 1st gear.Im having trouble sometimes getting it in second gear when I set at a stop light.When I try to put it in second, it sometimes goes in, or about half way in, or not at all.So I go up and down from second and 3rd gear...
