I guess that would be a .50 OD....

Put some 5.13's in that bad boy for some low end grunt and still be able to run down the highway 90 Mph turning 1600 Rpm.

Lets not forget I have a gear vender in it all ready. And I have fought the DOT already. I won. Good to go. They just want me to raise plate weight.

I have been waiting for the weight police to come here and tell you regardless of the mods you made to your truck, it still has a 10K GVW, so you aren't allowed to drive it cause it's overloaded.......

Surely that pig has to weigh in well north of 12K unladen right?

Where did you locate the 5er hitch in relation to the axles? I assume it had to be over the rear?

That is the way to do it without expensive machine work to add another output shaft to a standard T-case. Might be a tad noisy, but heck, you are driving a 2nd gen Dodge.....you won't hear it over the engine anyway!:p What about oil levels? Just going to fill'er up 3/4 to the top and call it good?

How is the scrub while cornering loaded? I notice cornering mine with just one set of duals @ 103" wide.

It is a NV 24 running backwords. Strait gears. Took it for a ride today. Did well. I rebuilt the NV 24 first. What u think about the plan?

I got the frunt drive hooked up today. And I want to drive it for a couple days. Then I will hook up back rear. You can see how I am hooking up back rear from the pic. I will update with finel pics for this job next week. Thanks for looking.
