HG and OC3 is WAY too fast in 1st gear for most work since it was sold as a row-crop tractor and not a dirt-mover. Oliver sold kits to put an aux trans in made by Trasco in California. Some have made their own like mine. Oliver/Trasco used a modified Ford Model A (2nd A from 1928-31) transmission. Makes a huge difference. Having the aux in low-range 1st makes it run near the same low speed as 1st gear in a John Deere 420 crawler. HG with no aux runs over 2 MPH in 1st. In low-1st it runs .6 MPH. A John Deere 420 runs .87 MPH. An Oliver OC4 with the factory hi-low aux runs .8 MPH. 2nd two photos are of the original Oliver-Trasco aux trans kit with a modified Model A three-speed.

Here's the original ground speeds with and without the aux.

Original: 1st - 2.01 m.p.h., 2nd - 3.19 m.p.h., 3rd - 5.24 m.p.h., Rev. - 2.33 m.p.h.

Range 1: 1st - .64 m.p.h., 2nd - 1.02 m.p.h., 3rd - 1.68 m.p.h., Rev. - .74 m.p.h.

Range 2: 1st - 1.08 m.p.h., 2nd - 1.72 m.p.h., 3rd - 2.83 m.p.h., Rev. - 1.26 m.p.h.

Range 3: 1st - 2.01 m.p.h., 2nd - 3.19 m.p.h., 3rd - 5.24 m.p.h., Rev. - 2.33 m.p.h.

Range Rev.: 1st - .53 rev. m.p.h., 2nd - .85 rev. m.p.h., 3rd - 1.4 rev. m.p.h., Rev. - .62 froward m.p.h.
