M2A1 Halftrack restoration-- dialup beware

[Frank46]

Tip of the hat to you sir. I've only gone through two pages but man what work you did. You should be extremely proud of what you have accomplished. I couldn't even begin to understand all of the work you've done to get where you are now. One question, I see what appears to be 5 gear shift levers. Would you be so kind as to what they are all for?. My only restoration would be an old 1973 CJ5 I had many years ago. Called it Nuts & Bolts. 1/4" diamond plate in the back with angle iron and 1/8" steel plate cut and formed by a welder I knew at work. Original floor plate was shot as were the bolts holding the cab to the frame. All my work was done in the back yard laying on the ground. Nice that you have the enclosed space and of course the bobcat with the forks. Thanks for sharing something that one doesn't see much anymore. Frank

From my aging memory...
One is obviously the gear lever, the tallest bent one.
Tall straight one nearest driver is the power take-off lever, then there's the hand brake lever, and the two furthest from driver are the transfer box shift lever and the front axle lever, but I can't remember which one is which.
