I never realized that the deuce and a half came with a fluid coupling - I

The old Oldsmobile Hydramatic (later just plain Hydramatic) had one or
two fluid couplings and a four speed triple planetary gear set with
all plate clutches, no bands. A monster of a transmission.
The dual range version had a high and a low slip coupling, selected
by the shift lever.
My 1962 Fleetwood had a Jetaway 200 THM transmission. Had two internal
torque converters (fluid couplings) along with the main converter. Believe it
or not, the vanes on the internal couplings were welded in place, and one of
them let go when I had the car.
I don't recall the exact details

all. That will show them.

You can have both, some Unimogs do. (The airport tugs, etc.)
