Son has 48 chev one ton pick-up with 9 foot stepside bed. We are refurbishing , not restoring, just want some changes. Rear ratio is very slow, 5 to 1 range. I have a brown-lipp light aux transmission with straight 15 % and 45% reduction. I used this box pulling goose neck loaded well over wolf-creek pass with ford 460. Transmission is in good shape. What we are thinking is to reverse the transmission to step up the effective ratio. We do not want to change the rear axle nor change ring and pinion. Question is have any of you folks ever reversed one of the boxes. Spicer bought the Brown-lipp company years ago . Many may know of this as a spicer box. It is the light series as was couenly used on one and a half to two ton trucks in the 40 to 50 decades. I have copies of the engineering drawings where oil slingers and shift linkage and be carefully reversed. As I understand the 9 foot box is rather rare, also it has lock ring rims with 17 inch rubber. We will change to one piece rims. Yes I know 2 piece lock rims are not the so called widow makers, however I watched a similar rim with a leaking tire blow apart and cut a wood fence post in two parts. Ok Advice please. Who has ever reversed one of these transmissions??

Today's Featured Article - Hydraulics - Cylinder Anatomy - by Curtis von Fange. Let’s make one more addition to our series on hydraulics. I’ve noticed a few questions in the comment section that could pertain to hydraulic cylinders so I thought we could take a short look at this real workhorse of the circuit. Cylinders are the reason for the hydraulic circuit. They take the fluid power delivered from the pump and magically change it into mechanical power. There are many types of cylinders that one might run across on a farm scenario. Each one could take a chapter in
