How about posting 2 or 3 of those in detail.

Great project Securiti! You've got more guts and fabricating talent than I.

Part time operation unless you need the traction is a good idea. IIRC there were some Fords back in the 70's with a divorce mounted full time transfer case. NP203? If so a 203 may or may not be up to what that Cummins will send to it.

Tell me. I need ideas.

Since you're planning to use 2 driveshafts both coming from the same t-case to power both axles, you have to figure out how you're going to get the second driveshaft to go around the first axle and into the second axle.

I suppose you could flip the second axle around and upside down, so the pinion points backwards and the ring gear still rotates the same direction as the first axle, then connect a v-drive gear box from a boat to the pinion end of the second axle so so the second drive shaft can run above the first axle and change direction via the v-drive gear box.

I have the second rear on a decent tilt up. And it sits far enough back from the other rear thar I can go rt over top useing a carrier bearing. But thanks for idea.
