What this mod does

E-F RTLO-xx913/18 Gearboxes + Diffs is a mod by Fury6 that adds the Eaton Fuller RTLO Super 13 and Super 18 transmissions, with and without retarder, to American Truck Simulator. He has maintained it since 2016, and it has more than 100 change notes and over 37,000 subscribers.

What’s included

  • Both gearboxes for the eighteen stock trucks and for many modded Kenworth, Peterbilt, Mack, International, Western Star, Freightliner, Volvo and other trucks.
  • 17 differential ratios, from 2.50 to 5.11. Higher ones give more pulling power with heavy loads but raise rpm and fuel use. Defaults are 3.55 on the Super 13 and 3.25 on the Super 18.
  • At the service shop they show up as “Eaton Fuller Super XX Y.YY rears – fury6”, with an r if they have a retarder.
  • Gears with their real names: R-Lo, R-Hi, Lo and 1 through 8 with high and low.

Installation and issues

Mack trucks need separate gear layout files, linked on the page. The author warns that, after an old update, some trucks may revert to the 10-speed gearbox: change it at the service shop and don’t use the truck manager, which can crash the game.

Version

The page lists 1.59 or earlier. The latest update is from September 12, 2026.
