In a Chevelle SS they called it first. In my 71 Celica, we called it first. In the import pickups, we called it first. In the domestic pickups, we called it granny.

Compound gear.

Of course he’s never owned a pickup with a manual so he was always referring to 2 and 5 tons with the trans in 1st and the 2 speed in Low.

NP435 has a pretty decent low gear. It's been a while, but IIRC the SM465 is even lower geared.

I do know a NP435/NP208 transfer case and 3.92 gears was plenty low enough for me.

The SM465 was the beast of the 3 mentioned. GM used them in 73-80 4x4's & up to 1 1/2 ton trucks. A 6.14-1(google say 6.55-1) Bulldog or Granny low gear.

I've heard people call it back gear. Probably old school machinists.
