Harold,

Have you, or anyone else, seen one of these aux transmissions? Were they similar to the units used on Ford tractors? I think they were built by Sherman. Or, are they more like a truck auxililary that requires U-Joints for input and output? Were they ahead of the clutch housing or in back of it? How long were they? How many speeds? Who mfg'd them? Were they available for H's. Were there any H cotton Harvesters?

It is hard to imagine a harvester needing a deep reduction travel speed. It must have limited each tractor to only several acres a day. It seems like a low speed ratio would have been cheaper to build into the axle drop boxes by using an appropriate gear ratio. OTOH, maybe these tractors spent alot of time on the road traveling from field to field.
