ABSTRACT:
A two-piece continuous mesh synchronized reverse idler system is provided for use with a manual transmission. The system is provided for use with a vehicle transmission having an input shaft with a reverse driven gear, and an intermediate shaft with a reverse driven gear. The reverse idler system includes a reverse idler shaft which supports an upstream idler gear and a downstream idler gear. The upstream idler gear is rotatably mounted on the reverse idler shaft for engaging the reverse drive gear on the input shaft. The downstream idler gear is rotatably mounted on the reverse idler shaft for engaging the reverse driven gear on the intermediate shaft. A clutching device is provided for synchronizing and engaging the upstream reverse idler gear and the downstream reverse idler gear.
