! The shift lever stroke has been set shorter to provide optimal shift feel.

! To realize assured shift feel, the shift link mechanism has been integrated.

! Due to the use of metal bushings for the sliding parts of the shift rod, sliding resistance during shifting is greatly reduced, thus improving shift quality.

id051111103200

Features

! A triple cone synchronizer mechanism is used for the 1st, 2nd, 3rd and 4th gears.

! The triple cone synchronizer mechanism is a compact device capable of heavy duty meshing.

! The synchro mechanism reduces meshing time and improves operation.

! The triple cone synchro mechanism includes a synchronizer ring, a double cone, and an inner cone.

id051111103300

1. When the hub sleeve moves to the left (in the direction of the arrow), the synchronizer key presses against the synchronizer ring.

2. As the hub sleeve continues moving to the left, the key causes friction between the synchronizer ring, double cone, and inner cone. The

synchronizer ring turns only the distance that the key groove gap allows, aligning the teeth of the hub sleeve and the synchronizer ring. As the hub sleeve continues moving, the friction between the cones becomes greater, and the difference between the rotational speeds of the synchronizer ring, inner cone, and double cone (unified with the gear) gradually disappears.

3. The hub sleeve then moves up onto the

synchronizer key and engages the synchronizer ring.

4. The hub sleeve then engages the synchro teeth of the gear to complete shifting.

! This provides reliable double-engagement prevention.

SHIFT INTERLOCK MECHANISM OPERATION [P66M-D]

id051111103100

Structure

! During shifting, the shift rods, except for the one in operation, are locked in the neutral position by the interlock pins.

Operation Neutral

! Each interlock pin is in the groove of each shift rod because no shift rod is operating.

1st/2nd shifting

! Movement of the 1st/2nd shift rod forces interlock pins A and C out of the 1st/2nd shift rod grooves, and the reverse shift rod and 3rd/4th shift rod are locked. In addition, interlock pin C forces interlock pin E out via interlock pin D, and the 5th/6th shift rod is locked.

3rd/4th shifting

! When the 3rd/4th shift rod operates, the other three shift rods are locked in the same way as the 1st/2nd shifting.

Reverse shifting

! Movement of the reverse shift rod forces interlock pin A out of the reverse shift rod groove, and the 1/2 shift rod is locked. In addition, interlock pin A forces interlock pins C and E out via interlock pins B and D, and the 3rd/4th shift rod and 5th/6th shift rod are locked.

REVERSE LOCKOUT MECHANISM FUNCTION [P66M-D]

id051111103800

! The reverse lockout mechanism prevents the driver from accidentally shifting into reverse gear when shifting from neutral to 1st gear.

End Of Sie

REVERSE LOCKOUT MECHANISM CONSTRUCTION/OPERATION [P66M-D]

id051111103900

! With the adoption of the reverse lockout mechanism, which utilizes a guide plate, reliability has been assured.

! A guide plate, attached to the extension housing, prevents accidental shifting into reverse when shifting from neutral to 1st gear by restricting the movement of the shift lever. When shifting into reverse, once the shift lever is pressed down and moved towards the reverse position, the projection on the lever goes under the guide plate, releasing the reverse shift restriction and allowing for shifting into reverse.

POWER PLANT FRAME (PPF) FUNCTION [P66M-D]

id051111634000

Features

! The power plant frame (PPF) maintains rigidity with a bracket installed between the transmission and the differential. Due to this the shift feeling is solid and a feeling of direct drive when starting from a standstill or accelerating is created.

! Also, due to the closed-section construction of the PPF, direct drive and response feeling have been improved.

— The transmission and differential are joined in a single unit which, even though the

differential can be separated from the body, time lag is lessened due to the near

elimination of lift, creating a feeling of direct drive. Furthermore, shock and vibration during acceleration and deceleration is greatly reduced.
