EATON COBRA SHIFTER

Cobra shifter for Freightliner vocationals

Eaton’s Cobra-style shifter is now available on some Freightliner vocational truck models equipped with the UltraShift Plus automated manual transmission. It’s an upgrade to the standard shifter, designed to provide drivers with “maximum” comfort, ease of use, and more efficient vehicle operation.

Eaton has also announced that its manual transmissions are now available as options on any Freightliner chassis equipped with a Cummins Westport ISX-12 G natural gas engines. The transmissions will debut on Cascadia daycabs with Westport engines that are scheduled to go into production in September of this year.
The Cobra shifter is now available as an option on Freightliner’s vocational family of trucks, which includes the 108SD, 114SD and Coronado 122SD. It has also been requested by some Cascadia buyers, according to Eaton.

The shifter includes a newly designed boot that completely seals and isolates the electronics package from cab spills, dust, and other debris. Its improved fiber-optic lighting allows drivers to quickly and easily glance at the gearing selections.
