Control System for the Gear Vendors Overdrive

A really slick MANUAL control system for the Gear Vendors overdrive. This unit was developed at the suggestion of David Morrison to circumvent the various troubles encountered with electric control of overdrive units using the stock 12 volt control via a solenoid on the overdrive unit. The solenoid is modified such that a brass bushing guides the end of the control cable. The control cable then presses against the end of the spool in the overdrive just like the solenoid did. The other end of the control cable is clamped to the shift lever (or other convenient location). Simply flipping the lever engages or disengages the overdrive instantly. This is a far superior control than the electric shift. For more details look at the Tourer article that was published the second quarter of 2002 (02-2). Part No. MP-104-48
