That's crazy
Gotta agree about the sey factor though

Olllllllld bump, but is there a build thread for the thing this was assembled for? Did it ever go into service?

No build thread for the rig though?

Good luck stopping that rig with that much low end gearing.....I run a 203/205, 5.86 rings, 44" tires, 3/4 ton front brakes and rear driveline brake set up......And it's marginal at best when in low low. I can't imagine stopping that set up would even be possible.


Stopping is actually EASY.
Just hammer the throttle while in LOW/LOW/LOW range, and the rearmost input shaft will shatter into a million pieces....
At that point, the truck is effectively in "Neutral". Press the brakes, and come to a nice gentle stop.
Seriously, think about the torque multiplication happening in those first two boxes and how much torque is coming into the 3rd box. You'd need some kind of 50-spline, cryo-treated 300M wunderpart to keep that from "esploding itself".
