A T55 / 62 has a spur geared first stage in the final drives which then drives into an epicyclic seccond stage so the input shaft from the transmission turns the OPPOSITE way to the sprockets.

If a M109 has a purely epicyclic or a two stage spur geared final drive the input shaft will turn the same way as the sprocket and problem solved.
