Ill take a stab at this.... On tranny you would have only one speed and lower torque ability. On transfer case you have several speeds due to tranny gear selection and forward and reverse and you have torque multiplication by using lower tranny gear. Why only one speed and no reverse off the tranny?...cause most PTO's on trannys run off the input gear and not the output. I think Im correct but am subject to being wrong if someone else can point it out. My truck has both a tranny mounted and a transfer case mounted PTO, but it is an IH so that may not apply to the Dodges.
