Any idea how difficult - mechanically speaking- this idea would be to bring to life?
Instead of using a GearVendor or US Gear aux unit.. why not adapt a old 3 speed from an older 1 ton or 3/4 ton f250/350 or larger chassis? And attach it to what ?
well I have the 99.5 F350 2WD SRW automatic with 3.73 ratio in the rearend.
IF its mounted where the tail shaft was and a set of solenoids for shifting from 1,2, or 3 gear and you'd have theoretically 1St(underdrive),2nd(OD),3rd(Double OD). Or have I forgotten or omitted something in the idea?
thoughts?
FYI i have a few other moding ideas on paper but, figured this was a goood start as any.
(yeah there's the ole saying, "Throw enough $$$ at it and you can do anything." But,I'm trying to do this frugally and with stuff on the shelf as well as thinkoutside the box here)
