(...) Yeah I suppose it would be, because you would have two different sets of gears that could both be changed. So in that way they'd be the same. The trick is to not duplicate ratio's because that's a waste. (18 years ago, 22-Dec-06, to lugnet.technic)

(...) Is it something like the front and rear sprockets of a 10+ speed bike? I know there are frequently duplications of gear ratios there. (18 years ago, 22-Dec-06, to lugnet.technic)

(...) That makes a lot of sense. The configurations I was coming up with in my head, tended to duplicate ratio's I already had. Steve (18 years ago, 21-Dec-06, to lugnet.technic)

(...) I don't know any details about splitters, but if the difference in ratio of the 2 gears in the splitter is smaller than the difference between any of the standard gears, then it would create ratios between the standard gears as per Glen's (...) (18 years ago, 21-Dec-06, to lugnet.technic)

(...) I've read all the replies and they seem to contradict each other, so I think I'll further define my question. If the splitter is an add on in front of the gear box how does it's internal mechanism give a ratio half way in between the gears. (18 years ago, 21-Dec-06, to lugnet.technic)

Hello Bob, For as far as I can tell this is the line up: motor - clutch - splitter - gearbox - range change - cardan axle - driven axles Greetings Maico Arts Bob Fay schreef: (...) (18 years ago, 20-Dec-06, to lugnet.technic)

Hello Steve, I would explain it like this: A gearbox with 4 gears forward plus 1 reverse with range change will give 4 lower gears and 4 upper gears, thus giving 8 gears forward. The splitter makes it possible to split these 8 gears when the truck (...) (18 years ago, 16-Dec-06, to lugnet.technic)
