Double Clutching?
I'm of the habit of double-clutching when driving any kind of truck,
especially when gearing down and am wondering if this is better/worse/no difference when driving my '85 Jeep CJ7? Any opinions? |

Hi Griffin,
LOL, it's a personal preference. I never used the clutch except to put it in gear at a stop, mostly because the stuff I drove took two men and a small boy to depress: http://www.----------.com/rextrans.jpg http://www.----------.com/kenworth.jpg http://www.----------.com/white.jpg http://www.----------.com/mack.jpg http://www.----------.com/slave.jpg God Bless America, ßill O|||||||O mailto:-------------------- griffin wrote: > > I'm of the habit of double-clutching when driving any kind of truck, > especially when gearing down and am wondering if this is better/worse/no > difference when driving my '85 Jeep CJ7?

Re: Double Clutching?
I usually find I am double clutching when I am having 'fun' and riding
the gears for power and snap. My wife will catch it too and comment about 'don't have too much fun now'.... The CJ7 Borg Warner World Class T-5 doesn't really seem to mind anyway. It's shift is supposed to be more of a European 'feel' than the American transmissions, hence the name. What tranny are you running?

Re: Double Clutching?
Unnecessary on a fully synch'd transmission. Keep in mind everytime you
engage and disengage a clutch you are causing wear. -Brian "griffin" <gryffy@DELTHISshaw.ca> wrote in message news:C9E6d.561107$gE.456649@pd7tw3no... : I'm of the habit of double-clutching when driving any kind of truck, : especially when gearing down and am wondering if this is better/worse/no : difference when driving my '85 Jeep CJ7?
