BillyT Posted December 14, 2016 Share Posted December 14, 2016 Ksb, where do you find this stuff?😁 They forgot to mention the earplugs the driver had to wear(od of course) to protect his brain from the concussion every time he shifted that deuce and a half and you could hear the drive line clunk across the street!😁 Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/47997-the-united-states-army-presents-the-fluid-coupling/#findComment-355094 Share on other sites More sharing options...

I started looking at "shifting a two stick mack " videos on my kindle and watched videos of every two stick ever built and a couple three stick heavy haulers! Discovered that when I shifted a triplex two handed and held the wheel with my knee I was "showboating" It was the only way I was taught😁 I always thought it was more difficult one handed!Gearhead 204, The military had very little confidence in the average intelligence of its members judging from that explanation of a "fluid coupling"! I was taught by the one fan facing another fan analogy!

Freightrain Posted December 15, 2016 Share Posted December 15, 2016 (edited) "The smooth operation of applying power requires SKILL of the driver" (driving a stick shift) Whep, there's the problem. No skill present in today's society of drivers....... BillyT: One of those twin stick videos is of ME driving my truck. Ya, I see all kinds of comments posted about how unsafe, blah, blah, blah. Ok, whatever. I have a two handed version, but it is not posted anymore. I didn't post them actually, four other people did back when I made these videos 10 years ago(way before Youtube was around) Edited December 15, 2016 by Freightrain 2 Quote Larry 1959 B61 Liv'n Large......................
