    Jan. 1, 2008
    Eaton Corp.'s UltraShift HV (highway value) medium-duty transmissions are now available with a park pawl option that securely locks the transmission to ensure the vehicle remains stationary when parked. The park pawl option is available for Class 6 vehicles with gross commercial weight (GCW) ratings up to 26,000 lb., and requires an OEM-supplied shifter to replace the standard pushbutton shift console.
