Abstract: The present invention has a dual sun planetary gearset, as well as a dog clutch or other type of shifting device, which allows for the hydrostatic unit to operate in a reverse direction in similar fashion to how it operates in a forward direction, thereby increasing efficiency and torque in the reverse direction. The gearset of the present invention has a first sun gear having one or more planetary gears that are mounted on a carrier, and a second sun gear, also having one or more planetary gears that are mounted on the same common carrier as the first set of planetary gears.
