Sorry, no clue about that. I was just thinking one change instead of changing gears in both (or three?) axles.

I wonder if you could still find an old under/direct/over three speed from the 1950s?

I drove an old GMC with one of those (5x3). You would just have to make sure to be only in direct when engaging 4wd.
