I was reading about the I-400 mechanical reverser, and was wondering if you had to come to a complete stop before shifting it into reverse, and if you had to use the clutch when you did this? Thanks!

Yes, you have to use the clutch and stop. The gears tend to wear quickly if you don't

Yeah, that's what I thought when it said mechanical. Thanks!
