Your favourite gear box?

I have driven most,except an auto,and I would say my choice would be the Eaton 12 speed twin splitter.You couldn’t rush and had to ‘drive’ the truck.
Down side was loaded hill starts and then repacking the cab.

Probably but if you could use it,you can appreciate how good it was/is.
Those that take the piss,probably can’t use one,or drive anything without an auto and less than a 420.

Couldn’t rush! It was the fastest gearbox ever, I still miss them .

Instead of couldn’t rush I should have put wait for the revs.

I only got to drive it mated to a 10 litre.
Back in the day it was a dream to have an ERF Olympic with a 14 litre Cummins.
