Early '36 (only) first and reverse sliding gear used with the output shaft with straight spines and only with the corresponding 67-prefix cluster gear. There's likely very limited demand for it or the matching cluster gear as spiral spline gears made the straight-spline sliding gear obsolete and the cluster gear is best used in vehicles where stump pulling is an important requisite.
