I have obtained a parts 39 WC to finish fixing another '39 WC. The parts one has many different features from the other one. One is the mounting of the electical information. Rather than being under the gas tank it is mounted to the post that hold the throttle and the steering wheel. Is this a standard configuration.

Also it appears to have, as mentioned in the heading, a secondary transmission. It has what appears to be a standard transmission, but between the transmission and the differential is a tube with a lever running out of it to the opeator. Is this a secondary transmission, and if so is does it act like a road gear or a creaper gear? If it isnt a transmission what is it and was it an option on the WC?

You are correct it is an add on road gear. I have seen it on other WC's.

I think we need a picture to ID what it is. I wouldn't be surprised if there was an aftermarket product for a gear splitter or faster road gear. Growing up, a neighbor had an aftermarket hand clutch in that portion of an unstyled WC- used it with the rotobaler, and the long lever came up forward and to the right of the steering wheel. What I referred to is a short lever, about a foot long, couple inches left of the steering column support.

UNDER THE GAS TANK IS THE PROPER LOCATION. SOME WERE CHANGED AFTER A MAG CHANGE BECAUSE THE ORIGINAL MAG HAD A SHUTOFF ON THE REAR OF IT AND WAS CONNECTED TO A ROD NEXT TO THE CHOKE TO TURN IT OFF. MOUNTING ON THE STEERING POST WAS EASIER TO GET TO TO SHUT IT OFF. BOB

It is a throwout lever, used to raise the mounted cultivator when you're in a jam- up against a fence, getting stuck, etc. Just disconnects the driveline. Also hany when using a rotobaler and having to stop to wrap and discharge the bale. Can snap it down quickly with just a bit of pressure on the clutch- rather than take the tractor out of gear

The lever is called the differential lock out. I agree that they were used with Cult lift system. The tractor had to be in gear for lift system to work,unstyled wc's didnt hav this option. Sometimes lift would not trip or it would raise it and drop. Some ended up at the fence row, cult down!
