| Twin Stick |
We
are all familiar with the typical J-pattern of
a Toyota 4WD transfercase. The options include
2WD-High, 4WD-High, Neutral, and 4WD-Low. What
you might not know is that these patterns are
controlled by two separate shift rails that operate
both 2WD/4WD and High/Neutral/Low respectfully.
With Marlin Crawler's new Twin Stick Shifter,
we can now separate these patterns and offer the
user a 2WD-Low range selection. Since both rails
are now independent of each other, they can be
moved in any pattern desired. 2WD-High/Netural/Low
and 4WD-High/Netural/Low. When used with a Marlin
Crawler dual transfercase, you now have the option
of 2WD-Double Low range. Marlin Crawler's new
Twin Stick Shifter does just this and is very
simple and innovative at the same time.
When designing the new Twin Stick, Marlin wanted
to keep it simple and have the best functionality
possible. It features a low profile billet base
that is both waterproof and oil-leak free without
the need of boots that degrade over time. Its
compact design is great for low clearance applications.
The vent breather is smartly tucked below the
strong billet casing on the top of the base plate.
This simple design has no attached bolts or brackets
that might become lose over time. This provides
for the greatest clearance while protecting the
vent and preventing accidental oil leaks. Can
be used with or without included shift boot.
Another great feature of Marlin Crawler's Twin
Stick Shifter is that the heat-treated chromoly
shift rods are not only a precision fit, but also
have an internal o-ring that seals the oil from
the inside. No external rubber boots are required.
This innovative design allows for smooth lifetime
long operation with virtually no maintenance required.
The Twin Stick comes completely assembled with
a one-piece billet aluminum base, heat-treated
chromoly internal shift rods and fingers, an in-cab
Twin Stick dust boot, new factory Toyota metal
gasket, and two black shift handles with either
Marlin Crawler's signature Turtle Shift Knobs
or specially labeled Twin Stick Shift Knobs. These
knobs are rubber-based rather than plastic for
a comfortable feel that will never get excessively
hot.
