Thank you 🙏

I have an FR, and it range shifts up perfectly. About 1/2 the time, when I do a range shift down, it seems slow/lazy engaging into low range. You can make the downshift from 6 to 5 with the stick, but you have to bring the engine speed up until the range shift fully completes/engages. It never grinds, it just often doesn’t make the complete low-range shift until after the front stick shift is complete, and the revs are matched. It’s the only trans I have ever seen act like this. Any ideas?

@@Xkekeskfndsmw Ok, yes, I know exactly what’s happening. You are simply not supposed to down shift through a range. 6-5th gear. You are actually getting the stick in gear before the shift completes in the auxiliary section of the transmission. It’s very easy to do with the FR because the shift lever movement is reduced by almost 50%. In other words, you are getting it into gear faster with your exact same timing. So, the answer is do not make the downshift from 6-5th gear. At that point you are traveling less than 12 mph. Use your brakes from 6th gear down to zero. Hope this helped.

Hello, this does help. Thank you so much for taking the time to respond! I really appreciate it!.It does seem like the FR high to low range shift happens at a really slow speed compared or RT10’s, 13’s and 18’s I have driven. There is a bulletin I found: RWRG0040 - Low Range Synchronizer Failure It also talk about the synchro becoming glazed, specifically on the FR. It feels like exactly what you are saying, but also feels like the synchro has no bite to it - the low range has never grinded, like other trucks I have ran with a bad synchro. I image a glazed one would grind too? Tyson (From Saskatchewan, Canada)

Thank you very much! 10speed is the most simplest to rebuild for me. Im glad this video helped out. Keep safe brother thanks again for watching.

Thank you so much 🙏

Thank you 🙏🏼

Gracias amigo 🙏🏼👍🏼

Yes. Just had mine done today

The problem with the metrics series is the rear box is too small to lift off with a jack and the back section won't come off without removing the shift bar housing since the high low range fork is connected to the shift bar housing , your regular 8s,13,15 and 18s you can pull thr backsection with it still in the truck
