I don’t know much about the Ruckstell, I’ve never driven one. What I was told was the Ruckstell geared it down so The T could have enough power to make it through he mud and up steep hills.

He owner of the T coupe I am working on has a TT with that transmission setup. He said the dangerous part about the three speed was its effect on braking.
