Sifting Pattern for 13 Speed?

I have tried to find info on the net about the shifting pattern on the 13 speed transmission, but have not been able to yet?

It is a RTLO18913

I have a 15 speed deep reduction now, but never drove a 13 speed, and there is no shift patter in the truck

Thanks everyone!

Low range:

R|1|3
L|2|4

High range with "split gears" in parentheses:

R|5(6)|9(10)
L|7(8)|11(12)

Does that help?

Can you shift this like a Super 10 speed, or do you have to use the clutch going from 5th up to 12th

All trucks shift the same, "Give the truck the gear it wants"

It's the same as Marriage, feel your way thru it, don't grind the gears, or you'll never get anywhere....

You don't "have" to use the clutch except for starting off.

I think it's really close to the 15 speed, except you don't use the "low" gear in high range. You go from bottom right to top middle when going into high range.

You don't need to split gears either, just for final gear. That's all I ever do.
