I think it says spicer on it looks like it was added later. I belive it started life as an army truck. Havent had time yet to figure out the ratios yet but i will, are these common ? Any chance it's an under , over, and a straight through? | | |

construct, what you have is an auxilliary transmission, could be a two or three speed. They were common in bigger trucks, see if you can locate an I.D. plate and give us the numbers, hope that helps. | | |

The one I'm useing is a three speed under straight through and over. Top speed in under is about 30 mph I have' nt had the nerve to go to the max in over probly some where around 80 or 90. I think this would be a good fix for most people wanting overdrive instead of useing the light weight I want'a break alum. car trannys. | | |
