Auto vs. Manual

[Petescj]

Im just going to have one of each. The Scrambler is gonna get an auto conversion this Summer. The Cj-7 will stay with the T-176.

Im waiting patiently for the Bright Guy to throw the Audi trans with paddle shifters in a Jeep. God that sounds like fun.

The possibility's are near endless. Horsepower is a no brainer...many of these trans are in high powered exotic cars....500, 600...1000 hp (Veyron). The ability to manually or electronicly dial down the hold back feature making downhill runs a thing you could quickly customize the trans to adapt to depending upon driver or trail needs.

The pros to a manual are ..

Low Rock Crawl Gearing, you can bump start or the best part is power start or crawl when you are in a bad spot. It does give you Slow control.Down hill is a lot easier. I have wheeled with guys who run an Auto they do work but you better have 4 wheel disc with the Big tires.
