Longer life, betterservice with greater economy; builtinto the truck, even at higher costof materials and methods. By some, this i^-ton transmissionprobably would be considered ad-mirable for a 2^-ton truck. ButMr. Gramm knows the work to bedone, and has built it for that work. He does away with the whip of aone-piece propeller shaft by usinga two-piece shaft. Three universaljoints instead of two—better en-gineering and better results. Both brakes work on the rear wheels, be-cause Mr. Gramm has found that a pro-peller shaft brake causes excess wear on.
