Since you asked about our thoughts..... I am probably the only one here that thinks a T-9 (toploader) crash box would be cool in a shoe box. I like that tranny and I like oddball stuff. Because of the work I do, I like a chev suburban for my daily driver. Enclosed/full sheets of plywood, side doors for tools.....The one I had before this had an sm465 granny low 4 speed. I always buy govt surplus stuff. Anyways just saying I love a trans with a granny low.
