The '48 has the setup you describe for the '52, 5/8 ton.

The '48's have the "three-on-the-tree" setup, while the '47's had a floor shifter. That's why they moved the e-brake to the left side and developed the foot engaged/finger released system. The '47 had the e-brake on a stalk near the floor shifter.
