      Been using the "hidden" gear for 25 years.
      It isn't available on all trans models (9, 13, 18). But, it is the same ratio as the lower gear (in low range) below it.
      If your accelerating, coming out of 4th in the low range and try to hit this gear, the RPM's need to be the same, your not building speed.
      It's same thing on a 9 speed and some 18 speeds.
      I use this gear to keep from having to drop into low range when going around left and right turns in the suburbs...or at a "rolling" stop.

    I didn't know something so simple could get so many views. he's shifting, 1, 2, 3, throwing the high rang switch, putting it back into the low (the gear closest to your hip) with the splitter down, then flipping the splitter switch up, then going to 5L, 5D, 6L, 6D, 7L, 7D, 8L, 8D. D=DIRECT.

    They would let the air out of their seats to sit low and put extensions on the shifter to raise it higher. LOL
    All the old truckers laughed at them when they passed them on the big road or saw them in a truck stop.

    I also prefer to let the synchro do its job by keeping it in gear while splitting as it's designed because all this guy is managing to do is cut his shift linkage lifespan in half by taking it out and back in to split.

    I can tell exactly why you shift (literally) into neutral when splitting gears; to allow the shifting mechanism in the auxiliary transmission to operate more smoother. (in otherwords, less strain and wear n' tear on the overall drivetrain and it guarantees that the teeth won't grind together when trying to engage.)
    very clever I might add. :)
