Topic: twinstick w56c & d

[eric91]

in the mc store i saw the twinstick kit, i was looking at twinsticking a 1995 toyota truck but it says the twinstick set wont work behind a w56c or d transmission. why is this? would it work on a w56a,b,e? could i swap the w56 out for another 5 speed that would allow me to run a twin stick setup? sorry if this is a dumb question, im new on the mc forum.

The later W56's have the T-case and Trans shifter bases combined in one unit. The older W56's have a separate shifter base for each shifter.

So would An older w56 transmission fit in place of a newer one?

1st stick for 2wd / 4wd

2nd stick for Hi / Neutral / Low range.


With only 1 stick, you have to be in 4wd to get into neutral and low range.

Got yah!! That makes a ton of sense. Should have thought more on the simpler end of things.
