It sounds like you have a normal 4 speed with a driveshaft-mounted parking brake.

Overdrive was definitely an option on the 1/2 ton trucks, but I have never seen one on a 3/4. That doesn't mean they didn't exist, of course.

I am wondering if your 4 speed might have been owner-installed. Is there any evidence that the truck ever had a column shift at one time? Where did you find the CG code?
