Lenco Street Transmissions - Shifting Point

Rotating the tower in or out slightly from the boss adjusts shift pressure. A fishing scale is used to determine the amount of shift pressure.

The shifters are the trademark of the Lenco transmission, they are held in place with a shifter bracket that can be located in numerous places on the transmission.

Each shifter rod is made from billet aluminum and the linkage is cut to the required length. Heim joints are used to ensure a solid shift.

Since our engine and transmission are going to be set back in the cab, the shifter location was moved forward.

Driver position and the location of the transmission in the vehicle are key to the shifter's location.

Here you can see how stout the shift linkage is and the amount of spacing between each shifter for hassle-free shifting under acceleration.

Lenco uses a fork assembly to slide the gear in and out of position. Moving the slider forward engages the transmission into the first and forward gears. Sliding it back engages it into reverse, and in the middle is neutral.

The finished transmission ready to be installed in Truckin's World's Fastest Street Legal Pickup. We're sure it will work as awesome as it looks and can't wait to get in and pull the levers.
