(...) 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)

(...) 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 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)

Between a splitter and a range change on a truck gearbox? I know what the difference is functionally, what I want to know is the mechanical difference. I've tried Google without much luck. Thanks. Steve (18 years ago, 15-Dec-06, to lugnet.technic)
