If you good at shifting you do it one hand.They way it should be done.We had 72 ford with 477 v8, 5 main and 4 aux,dump for years.Some combinations were so close you did seem to think you changed gears.The compound transmissions wre great but simply couldnt handle the torque of the stronger up comming diesil engines.Everyboy went to double and triple countershaft tranny.The principle remains the same a main with a auxilary trans but now they are air or eletric for the aux tran which is integeral of the main trans junoir copey
