following the below posts and warnings in it.. proceed with your own..

remap Caps + L to dash
Keyboard (including on screen keyboard) doesn't work

you need to edit your symbols like below in the file /usr/share/X11/xkb/symbols/us after taking backup of the same..

key <AD06> [ z, Z ] ;
key <AD07> [ u, U ] ;
key <AD08> [ i, I ] ;
key <AD09> [ o, O ] ;
key <AD10> [ p, P ] ;
key <AD11> [ bracketleft, braceleft, egrave, udiaeresis ] ;
key <AD12> [ bracketright, braceright ] ;

key <AC01> [ a, A ] ;
key <AC02> [ s, S ] ;
key <AC03> [ d, D ] ;
key <AC04> [ f, F ] ;
key <AC05> [ g, G ] ;
key <AC06> [ h, H ] ;
key <AC07> [ j, J ] ;
key <AC08> [ k, K ] ;
key <AC09> [ l, L ] ;
key <AC10> [ semicolon, colon, eacute, odiaeresis ] ;
key <AC11> [ apostrophe, quotedbl, agrave, adiaeresis ] ;

key <AB01> [ y, Y ] ;

gnome-shell refresh with Alt+F2rEnter or Logout & Login may be required..not tested..

then you need to choose which key is for level3 from "gnome-tweaks" or via "dconf-editor" or via "command line"

Gnome-Tweaks way

Dconf-Editor way

Command line:

gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.input-sources xkb-options "['lv3:ralt_switch']"
