All Allison Transmission 4700 and 4800 models are now available with 2nd Reverse capability, a new feature that provides a second "deep reverse" in addition to the standard reverse.


The feature will provide greater control and engine braking while driving on steep grades and make it easier to maneuver in small spaces.

The 2nd Reverse gear will allow for a slow creep capability as well as high engine speeds, Allison says. With a mechanical ratio of 17.12, it will have an effective torque converter multiplied ratio up to 32.5:1.

The feature will be available mid-year 2010 on Rugged Duty Series, Emergency Vehicle Series and Specialty Series models.
