How it works, gears are multipliers of torque and our Ratio Splitting
capability allows you to shift to a gear with more mechanical advantage
than the next stock gear in automatic transmissions and wide ratio
manuals. This also means engine rpm drops about half what it did
without the Gear Vendors and so rpm is sustained - higher torque and
rpm on shift = more Horsepower. When shifted into overdrive final
gear reducing both rpm and torque to reduce the manufacture of HP when
steady cruising to improve fuel mileage and decreases wear on your
engine. Two-year warranty rated at 30,000 pounds applications for
Chevrolet and GMC, most beneficial when used in commuters, tow
vehicles, 5th wheels and Motor homes. Our overdrive kits are very
complete and are designed for your specific vehicle, detailed
installation instructions are included in kit, and installation is also
available.
Related to fuel economy, performance, and emissions — Gear Vendors overdrive units include state of the art
electronics circuits that keep your vehicle in the optimum performing gear. Whether you are driving a older
non-computer controlled vehicle or a late model with all the latest emissions computers our electronics
provide the interface to ensure maximum performance and correct rpm without lugging or over reving in the
wrong gear. The OE factory programming remains intact and our processor just makes it aware of the
actual ratio 1,000 of times per second. In older vacuum or throttle linkage transmissions the stock
governor on the output shaft instantly slows down the moment the overdrive shifts and so automatically
moves the shift point in any overdrive gear up by the correct 28.6%. So both electronic and non-electronic
automatic transmissions gain a group of features including a passing gear or climbing gear that is
automatically available without driver intervention and is at the split between 2nd and 3rd where you
really want it. Need more information on how to save gas or diesel fuel? Also free technical support during installation if you

most needed. All our kits bolt directly to the rear of the transfer case and are electronically
locked out during 4X4 operation, see YOUTUBE video for more information. All our

control the unit or we suggest you flip switch when leaving city limits
sign and turn it off when you get to next city limit sign.

ground clearance instead of moving the transfer case rearward which
puts it at or nearer the middle of the wheelbase where ground clearance
is most critical. Read customer testimonial.

1984 Ford Ranger
On 9/14/09 I ordered the GV as a final touch for my
project 1984 Ford Ranger. It was promptly shipped on 9/22/09. UPS
delivered it to me in Massachusetts on 9/29/09. First I was impressed
with the neat, very nice job, your packing and shipping crew did. As I
laid out all the parts on a table in my garage, and read through the
install manual, it became clear to me that this was a high quality
product, from a top notch company. The next morning I drained my
tranny, removed my driveshaft and tailshaft housing. Just 4 hours
passed before I had the adapter, GV unit, electrical components, and
wiring harnesses installed. (the wiring harness connections were so
well marked and color coded that "even a caveman could do it!!" ) The
piggyback adapter for plugging my aftermarket electric speedometer
sensor to the GV sensor was a real nice surprise, it made it so easy,
and I later found that re-programming the speedo was not even needed.
So off to my local driveshaft guy,(Mitchell Differential+Driveshaft, in
Shrewsbury, Ma.) The next morning after picking up my new shorter
driveshaft,(decided to keep original in case of any future changes) I
installed it to find 5/8" free play on slip yoke, Wow!! I must have
measured right! Promptly I filled the GV with recommended synthetic
gear oil... $$$!!! and filled my tranny fluid. Now, I did one last
inspection of all my work, and prepared for the big road test!
As
per the instructions, I drove a few miles with the overdrive off. Now
my finger was shaking with anticipation just as it was about to depress
the gv button........(will all my time, and all that money be worth
it?)......... click. YES!! It worked perfectly, just as described on
your website. My 302 w/roush heads and all the other goodies seemed to
come alive like never before, it seems to be in the peak powerband
right up through all of my new-found 6 gears! The Performance Automatic
Super Streeter C4 seems to be made for the GV. What a huge difference
on the interstates at 70 mph the rpm is now down from just over 3000 to
2400, and it is quiet and relaxed. In just a little over 2 weeks of
driving I've already noticed I'm not having to unsnap my tonneau cover
and fill the fuel cell as often. This GV is on the top of my very long
list of modifications and improvements.
My
wife often likes to remind me of all the money I've poured into my
Ranger project, since I retired from my career as a truck driver, just
over a year ago. She is right, no expense has been spared on the
re-make of this fun little truck. The Gear Vendors is worth every
penney and will eventually payback in fuel savings and less wear and
tear.
So thanks to all who helped out in sales, and Mike in tech, for your assistance, and thank you all at Gear
Vendors for such a fine product. Feel free to use my letter or pictures if you care to.
