Climbing Gear
Q: Just bought a 1982 E-Series 4WD with a 460, and the transmission apparently has a 'climbing gear'. Can anyone explain this in a little more detail? I'm curious and have never heard of it, but am assuming its a high ratio gear for hill climbing. Thanks.
A: Also called a Granny Low.. A sub-first gear that's really low.... How low is it ?? Glad you asked...It's SO low that it allows you to get the engine up into it's power band while crawling along at 2 or 3 mph.

If you already own one, you know how handy they can be. Knowing their basic function may help you better operate them. It may also help with repairs or maintenance.
