2-WD Low-Range Kit Saves Transmission

2-WD Low-Range Kit Saves Transmission PICKUPS Accessories 32-5-34 Save transmission wear on your automatic 4-WD truck with the flip of a switch. Fullpull Towing's 2-WD low range kit can give you up to a 50 percent gear reduction. Inventor Richard Clayton has been in the wrecker and land clearing business for more than a decade. When automatic hubs replaced manual hubs, he couldn't switch from 4-WD to 2-WD low range. To save wear on his transmission when backing up or hauling loads on an incline, he developed an electronic gear reduction system that can be mounted in GM, Ford and Dodge trucks in 30 to 45 minutes. "Low range 2-WD is perfect for pulling a trailer up steep roads, taking loads of stress off the motor - saving fuel and the transmission," Clayton says. "You'll also get up to 50 percent more engine braking, saving your truck and trailer brakes for when you really need them." The electronic systems are model specific. For GM's, 1994 - 2008, the control box mounts under the dash; cost is $99.95 plus S&H. The actuator mounts on the passenger side fender wall of Fords, 1999-2008; cost is $149.95 plus S&H. The Dodge kit, 1994-2001, mounts on the passenger side frame rail; cost is $149.95 plus S&H.
