Two tippers with the same engine can behave completely differently on the same route, and the reason is gearing. A twelve-speed gearbox and a final drive matched to the terrain turn a 380HP engine into either a hill climber or a fuel saver — rarely both.
How the gearing decision works| Steep, short cycles | Shorter final drive, more torque at the wheel, higher engine speed at cruise |
|---|---|
| Long flat hauls | Taller final drive, lower cruise revs, better fuel per tonne-kilometre |
| Mixed route | The compromise ratio, which is what most fleets end up specifying |
The FAST 12JSD200T gives twelve forward ratios with a direct top gear. The step between ratios is close enough that a loaded truck on a ramp can find a gear it can hold, which is what stops the driver from slipping the clutch to keep momentum.

When you request a quote, tell us the steepest gradient on the loaded leg and the length of the flat sections. The final drive ratio is set with the driveline at build, and changing it afterwards costs a differential, not a phone call.
