    Don't know. Do know the other boys in the fleet said Zane Cox's truck would outrun the word of GOD, that 9th had been turned around.
    Talk was it gave you a partial OD ratio as opposed to regular patterned OD. Probably the "Good Ole Boy at Truck Center here who did all the transmission work was hung over and put it together wrong...

    I did have the pleasure of G2ing the shift pattern on a 1954 GMC 450. 5 speed, 5th direct, 2 speed axle. Company bought truck and pulling a reefer to FL from West Point, MS it would use oil. So they gave it me for my Mon-Thur 42 stop, store door route. and twice a week Wed-Sat dedicated to B'ham. AL
    So I took off, 1 to 4 splits as usual, shift to lo 5th something not right. Found you split up to lo 4th, move to lo 5th, then back up to hi 4th, then lever to hi 5th.
    In later years it was described to me as being a "Short 4th" ? I ran it 7 months and it used no oil.

    Well, if Tibbitt won't go, somebody gotta take stuff up there, so looks as if you and the OM are elected...
