      They also have a massive torque reducer to prevent the engine from completely destroying that transmission as well. It’s all put together as a pack and then installed.
      Otherwise the engine would annihilate everything in spite of only being some 25” long.
      They’re fun to work on, and a pain in the @$$ all at the same time.

      roundsm18 I was a tank mech in the Marine Corps. I’m fairly well versed in AGT 1500. Transmission work was mainly done at depot level. Although all my info is decades old now. I only did 4 years as a tank mech. I LAT moved to EOD as soon as possible.

    The Allison 4500RDS is a good choice for construction transportation ie; dumps, mixers, semi-lowboy, semi-flat, as well as fire trucks. I believe they are good for 550Hp, and 120k GVWR. Since no test drive this time, maybe you could wait until fall and have you back that truck through a corn maze to test out those rear cameras. That would be fun.

    Another great video and I got a chance to sit and watch it. That's a great looking T880, the T880 was my favorite (in a way it still is) until the W990 was revealed. Nicely spec'd out and that Heritage body is definitely a good value for what it cost. I know since 2014 you see a lot more of their bodies in my area. If I'm not mistaken my 1st T880 back in 2014 was one of the 1st trucks to have a Heritage body. From what I've heard their sales rep was slacking for getting sales in our area, but they've gotten a lot of business from our salesman.
    Now, the Allison is a great transmission, but I think there is some room for improvement. I drove one of the trucks in our company with it and was really nice to drive and it took a while to get use to (use to shifting gears for like 20 years), but loaded it felt like the 6 spd wasn't enough. I think it needs 2 more gears and then it'll be a really great transmission. Now if they can get that 10 spd to work in the Vocational market they'll have a winner. The Allison has that urge to move like it's torqued up and that I know some had to get use to. I know the boss loves them cause it means that he doesn't have to worry about putting clutches in the trucks all the time. It would be nice to see an option for the Allison where you can have the shifter on the steering column like you can with the Automated transmissions. Other than that I'm not sure if I'd go 18 spd manual, Ultrashift or Allison. I know the W990 I helped spec will have a 18 spd manual in it.

    • @KenworthofRichfield
      @KenworthofRichfield  5 років тому

      Thanks Wayne! I get what you're saying about the Allison needing maybe 2 more gears in there. I could see how that could help when loaded. Also, we're definitely hoping for the column controls on this also!!!!

  • @waynenorbreyjr9371

    Oh and the Dura Brights wheels are a great idea of Alcoa. I personally would spec a truck with mirror finish wheels, especially if you don't have someone who can change the wheels without damaging them. That was one of my issues with the Dura Brights cause our mechanic was always scratch or damaged them. And once there damaged there is no repolishing them out. I will say this, they definitely hold there shine and are easier to maintain, soap and water. My previous truck (2014 T880) has them on it and they still shine to this day, whenever that driver decides to clean it. Hope everyone has a great weekend!

    While I admire your enthusiasm for the Allison, I’m still not a fan of automatics in trucks. I drove a 10 wheeler with the Allison and hated it! It took so much power away from the truck that you had to literally floor it to get it to move and once you hit a hill with a load even street sweepers where gaining. I’m old school and will always pick that “third petal” over push buttons. Keep up the awesome videos.

      Kenworth of Richfield the other item being the Allison transmission fluid - it used to be maintaining the warranty required use of a synthetic fluid that met their specifications. They used to be a full synthetic fluid change and as it sat per gallon you could do three transmissions with regular synthetic before you got to the cost of the fluid alone for the Allison.
      I remember when I was pricing it in 2014 BP was one of the few vendors I could get it from aside from Allison directly, and it was over $45 a gallon.
      When they aged out we went back to AMTs and manuals again. Over 500,000 miles we could afford to rebuild the Eaton and replace clutch and clutch brake every two years for what the Auto cost us in fluid and filters.

    I lean towards the T880 also, it reminds me of myself still old school looking enough on the outside but refined and forward thinking on the inside, and Kenworth crushed it with the new W990, it’s the best of both worlds, old school exterior appearance and new school interior, what’s not to love, the only thing that sucks in that truck is the fridge, slide out drawer style fridges have zero room in them.

You didn't mention that the Automatic will start on a incline w/o any trouble where as an Automated will check the temperature of the clutch. If the temp. exceeds the recommended temp., the driver will have to back down the grade & try again. Your video could've explained more about the work site operation of the Allison then what it did.

      No. They’re a planetary with a torque converter. An 18 speed would be absolutely huge if it weren’t automated or just a regular manual. The Automatic transmission between torque converters, valve bodies and planetaries are already heavy and huge as it is.
      When you think about it from a mechanic’s standpoint the torque converter spinning around on that thing would be a mammoth. You’d shut the truck off and the fluid alone would probably rotate the engine another half turn just like it did with the 12V Cummins in Dodge pickups in the 90s.

      Always good to see what kind of content you have for us. I was listening to the video while driving, but once I get a chance I'll sit and watch it. I heard a lot of good points. Not to mention we have quite a few (11 I think) trucks with the Allisons. So I'm sure I will be commenting again.

    Great presentation of the different transmissions. I drive a dump truck in Vermont, 10 hrs of manual shift 8ll on these small, hilly, winding roads at 80.000 lbs gets old quick! Would like to see more. Thanks!

    Typical car salesman. Wanker. I view a truck I own or drive as a workhorse, not a show pony. Give me an older engine with no computer and nice thick wires. A bonus is a Red Dot on the roof.

The allison holds highway speed so much better at 65 mph i can avg 63 mph all day or 680 mile in 10.5 hour . At 70 mph at 1400 rpm the truck is unstoppable pound for pound and speed for speed the allison will out preform.
