That-a-Boy !
I knew ya’ had it in ya to do it - just needed some encouragement.

Now onto the dual powered 8274 - that is extremely cool and such a great idea for a vehicle going truly off road ( as in the “Outback” or other desolate areas ).
Redundancy from two separate ways of getting power is just genius engineering!

I almost got a light used gear set for 25% faster . Talked with the dealer selling it and he said for my needs do NOT swap ratios . Just do XP motor swap and albright relay upgrade . The faster ratios are for light weight and race applications for the most part . Our big stuff just stay stock ratio .

No doubt that the faster ratio gear sets are not for our heavyweight rigs.


In the light of this new information ( at least to me ) of H.D. lower shaft, the motor upgrade and other better than OEM parts there’s just no way that I’ll be able to rest easy until I give some attention and TLC to my old 8274.
These damn rabbit holes are viscous!
