There are two ways of doing this the way i down shift a two speed is to let off the gas for a split second and then hit the gas to INCREASE THE RPMs with out using the clutch it will take awhile to get this down PAT but in time you will get it down . Some guys use the clutch and gas pedal together weather going up or down .Also NO TWO TRUCKS drive the same i don't care if they are sister trucks made back to back with everything the same it just does not happen . My buddy and i both bought 77 4300 Egeals both came with NTC 350 small cam cummins both had 12513 Road rangers both trucks had 4.33 gears both had the same tires and they were both built back to back on the line only one # differant in the S/N and the paint skeem was a bit differant they did not drive the same and did not run the same when first put on the road his would out pull mine but i had him buy 4-5 mph on the top end he got a half mileper gallon better then mine did mine burnt oil from day one and had to be inframed at 45000 miles his did not shift wright from day one and had to have a clutch and have the transmission replaced in the first month , when it rained i needed and sump pump and rain suit his did not leak they had to remove the roof and reseal mine So we can all give ya ideas on HOW TO DO IT but it will come down to WHAT THE TRUCK LIKES. That is why we always call them SHE's there just like WIMMEN!!!!!!
