So I live with double clutching every single shift from 1st to 2nd. Down shifts from 3 to 2 I merely have to make sure the revs are where they will need to be when I notch it into 2nd. Sometimes I push the clutch in and let it out and then in again to be really kind on the down shifts . By doing these minor things, you basically don't even need a synchronized 2nd gear.
I have gone back and forth between swepco and Lucas Oils 75w90 and couldn't tell much difference at all.

What, no truck air horn? Just poking fun. I am 1/64” away from a trans overhaul.
