Thanks.

The MH 2500 Allison trans can normaly be set for 4th or 2nd preselect gear when you let off the brake the trans imidiately goes to that gear to slow the rv down without using the brake.My particular trans was able to be set up through the computer for 3rd gear ,the tech said that he thinke this chassis was meant for a different application such as a fire truck which has different specs he was not sure but normaly you can only get either 4th or 2nd gear choice to work with the cummins engine brake which works with the trans to slow the rv down,i hope i explained it so you can understand what im saying.all i can say is that i feel safe driving it now because i could hardly stop the mh without the engine brake working it acts like a jake brake that truckers use
