checking your data on the John Deere 2030 tractor, I own one, U.S. manufacture. Concerning gears, there are only 4 reverse speeds (only 1 reverse selection vs 2 (high and low) forward selections. In addition, the tractor width (from outside of rear tires side to side is almost 90 inches, NOT the 69 inches in your data.
