Push in the clutch and leave it in 5th gear. I love the smoke wisping up through the floor boards when starting from a stop.
Steel Soldiers now has a few new forums, read more about it at: New Munitions Forums!
Not quite. Second gear will release the sprag from reverse, and it is not locked in reverse, it still needs the speed difference to lock the sprag. I drive one every day and there is no missing when that sprag locks on pavement.I didn't see this any place the duce has straight cut first and reverse gear and the rest of the gears 2 to 5 are syncromesh. push in the clutch than put the trans into 2econd or third first for a moment to stop things moving than put the trans in first or reverse you will find there is no grinding that way. if you have the old sprag t-case you must use first gear to disengage the sprag after you have used reverse in reverse the front axle is always locked in.

!!!yea mine decided to kick in at 45 mph in the interstate, the bucking kicked off a upper dogbone end but somehow didn't damage the drivers seat cushion, figured out what happened when i looked back and saw the marks the front tires made
Not quite, if you look at how the T-case is controlled(by the transmission), shifting out of reverse to any gear will be fine.I didn't see this any place the duce has straight cut first and reverse gear and the rest of the gears 2 to 5 are syncromesh. push in the clutch than put the trans into 2econd or third first for a moment to stop things moving than put the trans in first or reverse you will find there is no grinding that way. if you have the old sprag t-case you must use first gear to disengage the sprag after you have used reverse in reverse the front axle is always locked in.

Like most of my projects, get to about 95 percent done and move on to something else. Still drive it most days.Funny ! Hey haven't heard from you in awhile. How's your project coming ?
This is one of the most important tips I've read so far ! As a bus mechanic that is the very first priority when going out to fix and retrieve a bus. How do we get it out of here ?!?! This same rule applies to any large vehicle. Always be conscious of your surroundings.Do not park where you might get surrounded. you'll never get out because of the turning radius. Think ahead in parking lots, and gas stations.
