How to double clutch and some transmission tidbits

[CDMVette]

Look at this scrub, double-clutching instead of granny shifting like he should be.

[bozmr2]

Awesome video! Very great tutorial and good video quality and information.

[KRHaldorson]

bronco!

[nativebrother]

This is a man's truck.

[ihc1963]

Synchro tranny has synchro rings to slow the gears for ease of shift also newer trannies have different cut gears to reduce gear wear and ease shift to tell if a tranny is synchronized try to shift from first to second or another gear without clutching with right rpm should be smooth no grind non-synchro will be a little tough

[mdog978]

I absolutely LOVED the video... I don't care what everyone else says... I also love your truck as-is... Speaking of which, make and model? :)

[justbecause2010]

Oh and these guys that comment bad on your truck obviously don't know what a true classic pickup is, when all computers shut down and they can't run their newly found cars we will be the ones with our CLASSICS to be riding around while they have to walk or ride with someone HAHAHA

[justbecause2010]

Thanks just mastered my cobalt in double clutching just needed a little insight on the basics of double clutching downshift, good thing I don't grind like the older vehicles

[pctureperfct]

why are there 2 gear shifters?

[Redrocket90]

"Granny shifting, not double clutching like you should." HA! Vin Diesel eat your heart out. You ain't a man until you've driven a rig with two shifters made of debar.

[SekthKhnemu]

wow, this truck runs better than my 03 saturn. sweet vid!

[orlandoautoexaminer]

@16mmDJ Because when you let off the clutch, the engine is turning the input shaft of the transmission. If you rev the engine without engaging the clutch, you're not changing the speed of anything inside the transmission. What he's doing when he's double-clutching is matching the speed of the transmission's input shaft (which is connected to the engine) to the speed of its output shaft (which is connected to the wheels) before he switches gears.That way, he can change gears without grinding the

[moh459]

This truck is like the one used by Noah to pick up his animals to the ark.

[pctureperfct]

@moh459 same age

[jmsmessner]

lol speedo dont even work

[haircutbob2]

@jmsmessner Ah, who uses those anyway?

[jmsmessner]

@haircutbob2 good question

[stevie586]

Man, that truck has seen some better days! However, this is an excellent tutorial and very well explained. Thanks

[nepat702]

FUCKIN REDNECK

[moh459]

@nepat702 Why don't you suck a dick?

[bastuson]

@nepat702 this redneck knows more then you do fag!

[isveryniceyes]

Reminds me of my pop's old F900

[dieselpower4ever]

Where does your exhaust dump out?

[bday8096]

whats his computer look like?

[redXiXpredator]

2 gear sticks ? wtf ????

[purpleravenstar]

@redXiXpredator The ole days of truckin before the 13-speed was invented.

[Fordfanforlife777]

@redXiXpredator Primary transmission with an axillary maybe. So It may be a 3 speed primary and by having an axillary essentially makes it a 6 speed.

[Snip3mare]

@redXiXpredator 2nd controls how many wheels are active axles

[gunscarsandgames]

im sorry, but what is the other "shifter" he has in the truck

[819driver]

so if my 3rd gear always grind when i shift should i double clutch and it would stop??

[fromrussiawl1]

@819driver Probably... depends whether you have a synchromesh trany or not. If its a synchro trany and it grinds then its probably a broken synchromesh

[819driver]

@fromrussiawl1 well it work n im so stoked about it :D

[OfficerSheepDog]

Very well explained.

[midgetmayo]

Interesting shifter.. Shifters .. ? lol. Nice truck.. You just do not see the old stuff anymore.. Shame really.

[16mmDJ]

I don't understand, why do you need to remove your foot from the clutch, when adjusting the engine speed between gears? I can achieve the same effect just by keeping my foot on the clutch until I've approximately matched the engine and transmission speed and have a seamless gear shift, but only pressing the clutch once, and removing it when in the next gear. Plus I only have to move the stick once, I don't have to stop in between.

[MrIcetrick]

That truck is a lambo killer...

[purpleravenstar]

5x4 transmission?

[Aot6]

what a piece of shit

[warracer03]

@Aot6 go make lego stopmotion you idiot...

[VIKINGPIRATES]

wow！ what a truck！

[KiloByte69]

Bring back the old style transmissions!

I've written several letters to Mack,Peterbilt, Eaton Fuller, and Freightliner. I need more help guys, we can do it!

[cowletable]

thanks...

[sawyez]

I have heard this man hasn't cleaned his azz since he was born..

[kjartansmith]

thanks for the instructions man, helped alot. Nice truck too.

[asblackaswhitegets]

Honestly i didnt think that truck would start when you turned the key

[pcatp]

thanks so much, now i can sneak out and steal the truck

[VFA103JollyRogers]

I double clutch even newer transmissions

[SkymillionBeatz]

lol that truck is so ghetto it sounds ghetto even with double clutching...great tutorial tho

[Cubzs]

awesome interior

[bradford880809]

Thanks buddy

[THEANTIPLAYER]

Thanx for the education on double clutching!

[THEANTIPLAYER]

Thanx for the education on double clutching!

[rollthetape88]

best demo ever what a top bloke

[th31337n00b]

Whooo! Bumpity bumpity. Haha great video though, really helpful. thanks, man

[WarrockWeapons]

does ur speedometer is working???

[killer6307]

great job bro you actually made sense to me i got a 2010 mustang gt v8 and ive ben dying to know how to double clutch and noone around here can explain it and very few even know how ill definetly be double clutching now

[22mpb]

finally man someone who can explain double clutching who actually makes sence. and thats a nice truck

[knitecrwlr]

NICE, lol, love the vid

[VersusModeADR]

WTF ys that truck muddy on the inside.

[ShawnD1]

Thank god this video guy actually knows what's talking about. Double clutching is done because it needs to be done. It's not some dumb thing that needs to be done in a Honda Civic..

[deb1926]

Helical gears make less noise but put more pressure on the case of the tranny,strait cut rob lesss power from the engine,but make a crap load of noise especially when under a big load.Very good explanation of double clutch.

[insanesniperx]

IH trucks rule.

[mininick0001]

a truck built for a man

[TranceYourDestiny]

thnx man this where the only video i understand how double clutch works.

[TheBattlefieldFan]

love your truck, what truck is it, cant really tell american truck makes, since the interiors look the same for me

[wagner59270]

@TheBattlefieldFan thanks dude its one of my favorites, its a 1957 international S100 short box step side with a 270 inline six

[paintballguy59]

that is a mans truck there

[xlechasseurx]

chuck norris car =D

[tillyb1989]

You can also rev match doing just a single clutch on a downshift. Its good for syncro trnnies too.

[PhantomGamer100]

ONE IS ENOUGH WTF?

[imaximusa45]

Thank you for the amazing demonstration! Very informative.

[KastaRules]

Love the sound of that engine! Thanks for the vid!

[toeganssoftware]

awesome at first i thought like wtf is that kind of a gearbox? but then he showed how it worked and this is the best video explaining so you said you try your best? you did great :D

[Schutzstaffel23]

i would actually prefer a staright cut gearbox in my car. i dont know if thats diff from what ur talking. but i know performance vehicles usually have a straight cut gearbox and or ''dogbox''. let me know man. love this vid will save me some life on my gearbox lol.

[thercds1992]

Nice car !

[PaladinHludwig]

Thanks very much for explaining this so well. I never could understand what it was before. Man that truck must be real old ;)

[nosoxfan]

what re your driving boss?

[wagner59270]

@nosoxfan its a 1957 international S100 short box step side

[Playa1sweet]

i would like to drive that truck !!!

[farmingisawesome]

Well, you're better than my dad is >.> 'Course he's only been driving for barely a week

[carlisle1926]

A synchronized transmission has little bronze bushings that rub together when you go to shift the gears. These "synchronizers" act like tiny brakes and slow the gears down so that they mesh easier. A synchronized transmission will also most likely have helical cut gears that reduce gear noise. An unsynchronized transmission will almost always have straight cut gears. These gears are noisy. That is why Model A Fords back in the 1920'/30's have such noisy transmissions.

[crazydiesellover]

I am in love with that old truck of yours. Non sycronized is a whole different world, and its great if you have the technique. Nice video

[TheMegaThunderbass]

Was that the 57 international pickup?

[ViridianScarlet]

Gotta say, I am in driving school right now for my Class 1 and the instructors made it so hard for me to understand, when I already knew how to drive standard they made it seem like it was such a difficult job! But thanks to you, you have explained it a lot better than they have, and not only that but really once you start doing it, it just comes naturally!

[tomarmstrong34]

weird question but what kinda boots u got on

[dalekrueger]

straight cut gears are noiser than helical cut gears,

[jamesakaduke]

i just got a 1952 L-120 mine has split rims did u convert the axles, and is this truck still 6 volt system this truck is in great shape i am jealous :P

[kez850]

that is a badass truck

[decibelchild]

is the double clutch downshift also called "Rev Matching"? My friend showed me how to do it and it has been real handy since iv learned it. But i just want to use the proper term for it.

[kez850]

@decibelchild

yes, it's easier on your transmission.

[decibelchild]

is the double clutch downshift also called "Rev Matching"? My friend showed me how to do it and it has been real handy since iv learned it. But i just want to use the proper term for it.

[240sxGuy3]

WTF kind of car do you drive??? You have 2 fucking sticks coming out of your floor board as a tranny?

[narlycharley]

@240sxGuy3 Most likely a 3 speed... A lot of older trucks had 3 speed transmissions.

[240sxGuy3]

@narlycharley lol man, tell me thats not your daily driver!!

[clipdan]

@240sxGuy3 ---> that's how they were back then... The Real Old School...

[l337pwnage]

Now do a heel/toe shifting vid. ;)

For anyone who hasn't seen it, a good movie so see/hear a lot of double clutching is the old movie "Bullitt" during the chase scene.

/watch?v=GMc2RdFuOxI

[DuallyDieselFord]

Very helpful were you driving a powerwagon?

[zac014able]

@TheChevy3500hd it wears out clutchs faster if u have a synchro transmission its better to shirft gears normally

float shifting if u get good at is the easiest on everything but its also the most difficult

the thing to consider is the added usage of the clutch which means it will wear out sooner .....

[chance9888]

THANK YOU!!! Someone who actually uses double clutching for the correct purpose. I don't like people who do it on synchromesh transmissions. It's bothers me. What model vehicle do you have?

[crazydiesellover]

@chance9888 I agree. Im not a huge fan of slip shifting. Theres a clutch pedal there for a reason duh! I really hate when people slip shift a fully syncronized transmission for no apparent reason. They might think that they are hot stuff because they have the skill to do it, but yet they are not using the clutch for what its for. The clutch is to break torque and release all the tention of the transmission and driveline. Instead you just fight the syncro's and break things

[UprightsRule895]

Does that hae a stick for each shift lane?

[bigfoothumper]

thanks i just got my licence i just started driving stick and i didnt get how to double clutch

[Northernstar9370]

I have to say your about the only person who has been able to explain it AND demontrate it (at the same time!) and have it make sense. I been driving semi for 8 years and can float and double clutch but cant explain it so it makes sense. Nice job!

[wagner59270]

@Northernstar9370 thank you

[TurklesNest]

Good explanation! You can talk and drive at the same time,i can't :)

[tractorjunky1234]

hey what ever hapend to the brown cow

[wagner59270]

@tractorjunky1234 havent had a chance to dig into it yet

[tractorjunky1234]

@wagner59270 o that sucks man r u hoping to get it going o you should at lest make a vid saying you still have it for all the brown cow lovers

[wagner59270]

@tractorjunky1234 thats a good idea Ill get after that asap

[zhsy00001]

I can't drive and people ask me all the time what double clutching is. I'm so posting this on my blog. Thanks.

[wagner59270]

@zhsy00001 cool no problem

[SS350silverado]

the older trans howl is like gear drive timing

[wagner59270]

@SS350silverado yup that would be the noise

[RamblinAround]

Very cool and informative video. Thanks.

[fordbroncodave]

thanks for that, now i won't fuck up 2nd gear any more lol

[danwil752002]

cool, can you demostrate with no boots, just socks?

[seapeddler]

Holy jeepers creepers.

[phill903]

Jaming gears is cool!

[camdensdaddy]

Another great vid Wayne! I once had a twin shifter setup like the 57s, non synchro trans and I sure miss that pickup! My first "nice" pickup still had it's column shifter, and I really liked it. At the time my friends would always ask me what the third pedal was for in that one. City kids didn't know about clutches I guess. LOL! I told them as straight faced as I could the pedal on the left was for the windshield squirters, and universally they all bought that one til they rode with me.

[johndeereman19]

is that a 4 and 5 tranmission

[wagner59270]

@johndeereman19 nope just a 3 speed

[johneastmond]

@johndeereman19 I haven't had anyone even know what I'm talking about when I mention 5 and 4. Nice of you to mention they're existence! 5 and 4's have two sticks quite like you saw here, but there are other boxes that ran more than one stick, such as this 3 speed. Heavy duty trucks often ran 5 and 4 to get enough gear ratios to pull heavy freight. One stick worked 5, other stick 4. Here 1 stick works main shaft, other works counter shaft.

[wagner59270]

@johneastmond personally I dont care much for the 5 and 4... trying to get that brownie box into a range always made me grumble and most of the time I just picked one and shifted the primary

[a1986ford]

the noise you described is like you said bc of the straight cut gears verses helical cut gear witch most fwd car are in the forward gears. fwd cars for the most part are straight cut in reverse some rwd maby im not sure.

[WhoSaidTyler]

Great video Wayne. Yes, synchronizers can be thought of as minature clutches that bring two gears up to the same speed just before they engage. This video also probably made a certain segment of Youtube viewers very, VERY happy. You may be asked to redo this video barefoot LMAO.

[1944johndeerel]

your old john deere garden tractors and your model A will make a whining noise from the straight cut gears in the tranny

i should try double clutching my old case when i shift it into road gear, i never got the double clutching concept down before.

[bigcj784]

Excellent explanation Wayne!  I'm afraid this is becoming a lost art though, due to our older workhorses dying out.

[Dabquibij]

I have a transmission noise on a 96 bronco that occurs only whenever the accelorator is released. The best way to describe it is something like chubacca from star wars. Other than that, it's hard to explain. Do you have an idea of what that may be? The truck has a 9 inch rear with a E4 auto trans.

[wagner59270]

@Dabquibij sounds like maybe your rearend is getting a little loose

[More350Power]

I have to thank you for the vid. Once I see something, I learn it. Great Channel you got going!

[PolarisSnows]

for a non synchronized tranny cant u just power shift without the clutch 2 second and third and then rev back up to shift back to second without the clutch?

[wagner59270]

@PolarisSnows well you can power shift with any transmission but its fairly hard to get it right in this one, I think it may be because of the wide spread between gears with the three speed

[creativetux]

Another great video! Id love one of these trucks

[jstrunck]

Cool Vid!  Do you float your gears?

John

[backwoods3214]

what are the knobs on dash why are there 3 shifters?

[wagner59270]

@backwoods3214 they are the wiper, lights, throttle, and choke, there is only 2 shifters, but this pickup would have originally been equipped with a column shift and for whatever reason (I assume the linkages wore out) the previous owner converted it to a 3 speed on the floor which either requires a proper conversion kit or the 2 sticks you see there

[devildriver66621]

hey you sould bend the 1 and reveser shift so it will be mon confortable for your hand when you are shifting

[gliderp]

No wonder IH went out of the light truck business. No in dash Sirius radio.

You probably already know, but helical cut gears also produce side loads that straight cut gears don't. Just more forces to deal with in design. I sure love the straight cut gears in my Harley though. I'll never get one of them new-fangled motorcycles with those sissy helical cut quiet gears. Hell no, not me.

[blingmow101]

You have the most original utube channel! Thanks for posting

[slowride55]

Nice glasses wayne! I got them too! Anyways say you were driving through town and you come up to a stop sign. Do you press the clutch, put it in neutral and let the clutch back out and then just stop with the brakes? Or do you shift down the gears until you get to first and then just just put it in neutral for the remaining 10 or so feet?

[wagner59270]

@slowride55 usually i would just shift into neutral and coast to a stop, but mostly it because its better on mileage

[slowride55]

@wagner59270 oh ok i thought i heard sometime about clutch wear or something if you just coast but i guess i heard wrong

[1elAguila]

great job amigo very educational

[fordfanatic100]

very educational.  nice. I bet alot of people learned a lot from that. good work.

[proudtobeafarmgirl]

Wow, that is a lot to remember - I would have to glue an instruction sheet to the dash board!

[Sillybillydilly]

Why can't you leave the clutch depressed while you keep it in neutral, and gas the motor? Does it wear when fully depressed, or does it wear when it's gripping and rubbing hard? It looks like too many dancesteps pressing the clutch twice.

[fordfanatic100]

@Sillybillydilly you let the clutch out in neutral to keep the input on the trans spinning at the same speed as the engine, other wise it'll grind going into gear. at least that's what I've been told.

[wagner59270]

@Sillybillydilly if you rev the motor with the clutch in then you would just be turning the flywheel and that wouldnt allow the input gears in the transmission to spin up to speed hence the reason you have to let out the clutch, rev it and then put the clutch back in, and the clutch wears the most when you are starting to move from a stop

[seancoful]

Hey wayne do you still have your other two dump trucks clover and the that looks like it and whats the differants between the grian you have on the grain truck then regulager grain if you could you explain that thanks from sean .

[marcelstjean]

dude..........no xplaning to me im 40 ive been  there thanks to my grandad snd my dad..good vid bud

[ils360]

that is coool

[SergeantTwiggs]

that howl you were trying to describe would that be in some of the 90's hondas when they go into reverse? that noise always bugs me haha,

[wagner59270]

@SergeantTwiggs yes the would be the exact noise i was talking about, usually not quite as loud though

[FordDZLMan9191]

You should modify them sticks so theyre a little easier to grab. Looked like you had to reach a bit to for 1st and 3rd. Great vid.

[SeerShadow]

Awesome vid

[MooseBaker]

Somewhat helpful. I have a 51' GMC just like this truck here. When I grind the most is when I go from 3 to 2 going down my drive way. IDK why but thats just a bad spot. I only use 2,3,4 as first gear is a compound low. Hey can you explain in your next vid about compound lows. I would like some more info on that.

[UBBERTANKER]

most reverse gears are still strait cut, the noise your trying to describe at the end would be simalar to the sound when going in reverse in modern manual trans cars.

[84400]

Thats a pretty good explanation for those who don't know. Next you should show them clutch less shifting.

What year is that truck? my 1956 willy wagon has a syncro trans (t90)

my sm465 with granny low the granny is not syncro'd

[wagner59270]

@84400 thank you and the international is a 1957

[moparguy66]

To borrow your line, Wayne -- We like it!

[miniz33]

Is that international an inline 8? Sounds really nice when you revved er' up before downshifting!

[84400]

@miniz33 it would be a 6

[miniz33]

@84400 Wow, that's a beefy six

[wagner59270]

@miniz33 nope just a 240 inline six

[wagner59270]

@miniz33 nope just a 240 inline six

[ChadLand011]

whats the truck yer driving ? Great vid, thanks.

[wagner59270]

@ChadLand011 it is my 1957 international S100
