Just for the record, the RINCON has the above stated transmission type....not the Rubicon. Google "Rubicon Transmission", and you can learn about its totally unique design. Also, note that the Rubicon will be way more expensive than any of the manual trans machines.

Like I stated earlier, (seeing you don't seem to require 4wd)....if you need more power look for a 2wd Rancher (older 350 or newer 420) or Foreman (older 450 or newer 500) all of which have time proven, simple manual transmissions!
