During surfing I came accross with Evil Twin sticks for sami. quite impressive. I need your expert openion on how they work.
I am no expert, but do have the Evil Twins and an opinion.
What I understand, one stick is for shifting between H and L and second is for between 2wd and 4wd. I have manual lockign hubs.
Mostly true. The left stick is for lo, neutral, & hi. The right stick is for 2wd or 4wd.
Does front shaft is disconnected when you put in 2wd low range?
No. You disconnect the front shaft with the right stick, which is for 2wd or 4wd. You can use lo range (left stick) in 2wd or 4wd.
thanks in advance for your expert openion.
You are welcome.
The Twin Sticks allow you to have a true neutral, which is great for flat towing. It allows you to use hi or lo range in 2wd or 4wd. If I am wheeling, I usually lock my hubs, put the right stick in 2wd, with the left stick in hi or lo (depending on my speed). When I need 4wd, I only need to move the right stick to 4wd. The hubs are all ready locked. Then I can move the right stick back to 2wd, without unlocking the hubs.
