To my knowledge, a 3 speed over/under "Brownie" is a big heavy cast iron parts for midrange to heavy trucks, I'd guess about 15-20" long, at least that deep, at least 300 lbs. Not real practical for our little things. We can move up one notch and get some real performance improvements, like the Spicer 3053A or the NP540 or Clark 5 spds, but when we move into the heavy truck range (9-20 spd RoadRangers weighing 600 lbs, Caterpillar or Detroit diesels weighing >2000 lb, motors 45-50" long) ir becomes butchery and ruins the vehicle.
