    No both companies in question as I know did not merge, in fact a Spicer Brownie combination, is a normal Spicer five speed gearbox connected to a four speed Brownie auxiliary gearbox via a short prop shaft. In the late 1930,s AEC at Southall Middlesex UK used a similar arrangement on their Mammoth Major ,a 4x2 two stick double gearbox, four speed main ,two speed auxiliary. Leyland at Preston Lancashire went one better with a 5x2 double gearbox ,five speed main two speed auxiliary on the Beaver, Hippo and Octopus. Fodens of Elsworth Cheshire designed a 4x3 box, four speed on the stick, with an air operated three speed auxiliary worked by a stubby lever under the steering wheel, like an air operated hand parking brake.

    Twin Stick Shifting is always harder in a Cabover ...( much longer shift linkage ).. What does this truck have for power ?

    Your lovely ,65 Freightshaker is too quiet, the 250 iron Lung Clessie Cummins is a sweet little engine needs to be kept spinning hence the two stick Spicer Brownie double gearbox, five in the main ,four in the Brownie. A straight stove pipe no silencer(muffler) is best, I want to hear the 250 Cummins bark waking the dead.

      You ain't lying brother, before I got the 65 Narrow nose Pete I drove a 65 cab over Freightliner manure spreader until The Pete got ready.
      I was spreading chicken manure in a wheat field (harvested) when I hit an unseen irrigation rut, the wheel whipped to the right taking my wrist into the dash, breaking my wrist! Hurt like hell, best part was the disability paid better than the $3.40 an hour I was getting.

      ​@@russvoight1167Just a prehistoric way of keeping track of the driver. Keeping him from over revving it and speeding. All that can cost the company money/profits.
