I personally prefer to double cluth my W-4 when I am going for 5th gear. Bucky ..I was wondering if you knew the correct procedure of double clutching ..as many do not these days. It is a bit tricky but can be done. You need to be going full throttle in 4th and then shove the clutch in,drop the rpm to idle,let the clutch out,shove it in again and go for fifth. The principle of the procedure is to get the input shaft on the tranny in sync with the gear you are going for at a given ground speed. I also double clutch when I am going for 4th from 5th while pulling a hill, but this requires speeding up the input shaft. There's more to double clutching than just pushing the clutch twice and it confuses alot of people. Just remember if you are going for a higher gear you have to slow the input down,and vice versa when going for a lower gear. I learned the hard way. My Dad didn"t explain double clutching to me when he put me in a 1967 International dump truck. It had two transmissions and neither one of them were syncronized. That was in 1978. It took a while but eventually I was able to get gears without any grinding and I could up-shift without using the clutch. Good luck ..Iron
