It has 3 positions for the shift rods, plus neutral.

I shifted each possible position and rotated the input shaft and walla under, direct and over.

I checked it out before making the statement about it being an 3 speed under, direct and over auxiliary trans.

Plus I verified that it does bolt directly to the rear of an SM420.

It is for an open drive-line setup and seeing as how it does not have the ability for a drive-line E-brake.
My thinking is that it may be for 3/4T or 1T open drive line, with cable E-brakes at the rear wheels.


Dance like no one is watching,
Sing like no one is listening,
Love like you've never been hurt.
