Final Conventionally Designed Gearbox

The 5HP is the last transmission family that utilized a conventional design. To meet the requirements for a greater number of gear ratios, the only viable option entailed adding more components. That made these gearboxes bigger, heavier and even more expensive to build. As the presence of up to ten main components (two Ravigneaux gearsets in series, along with brakes and clutches) showed, this marked the end of conventional gearbox design. The successor, the 6HP-family, employed an all-new Lepelletier gear mechanism design, which needed only eight main components in order to achieve six gear ratios. This demonstrated a new paradigm in gearbox design.
