I've got a couple of machines I'd like to do the same thing on - but my RPM goal differs. My Allis Chalmers HD4 has an engine-speed PTO - i.e. it'll run 3000 RPM. I'd like to adapt something to it to slow it to 525. Same goes for my Allis Chalmers HD6. The HD6 was available with a mulitple-speed PTO gearbox - even had reverse. I've never found one though, for sale anywhere.
That all being said - in your case, you didn't mention horsepower. For a low-power setup, a rugged car transmission that has full bearing support front and rear should work - but they are rare. Most automotive transmissions require a flywheel/crankshaft with a pilot bearing to support the front of the transmission. One transmssion that is very rugged and has full ball-bearing suppport front and rear is the Ford Model A car 3 speed trans. (not the AA truck 4 speeed). That's what Oliver used OEM for an aux. trans. on the OC3s. The Model As were good for a max. of 40 brake-horsepower - but I have no idea what the trans. is rated at for max. power. Reduction is 2.6 in 1st, 1.6 in 2nd, 1 in 3rd, and 2.2 in reverse. The transmissions can usually be found cheap and all the parts are available new-aftermarket. In my area, year's ago, farmers made all kinds of contraptions and winchs with the A transmissions.

Some purist I'm sure will disagree to no end with what I will tell you but most of us out here in the real world don't really care do we ? Some of them only bring their noses down out of the air long enough to look down them anyway. If you are like me you are only doing this old tractor stuff because you enjoy it. You
