David,
As far as I know the Marmon-Herrington transfer case included a high-low ratio. While this was needed on 3-ton trucks, it was a bit overdone on a 15-cwt truck. I do not know (I only have a F15A parts list) if the 15-cwt transfer case is largely identical to the ones used on the 30- and 60-cwts (e.g. simply omitting a set of gears), or a totally different design.
Now, if Sid used a standard Marmon-Herrington transfer case to start with, would your reasoning be the FGT was developed before the F15A?
