Description And Operation

The AL6 6-speed transmission is a constant-mesh transmission that is synchronized in all gear ranges.

The four-plane shift mechanism is cable operated and incorporates a pull-up ring on the shift lever that must be lifted to engage reverse. This prevents unintentional selection of reverse when attempting to select first gear. Rubber isolation of the shift system at the transmission minimizes noise carried along the cables to the passenger compartment.

• Better torque holding capacity in a smaller package
• Decreased Shift Efforts
• External clutch slave cylinder for trail serviceability
• Same overall length as 8HP50 Automatic transmission
