Well, the doubler is in! I got the front driveshaft bolted up and took it for a test run...CRAWL-O-MATIC! I can even spin the hell out of the front tires! The rear driveshaft is cut, grinded, and tacked (need to fill the welding tank). But, reverse isn't gonna work. I'm gonna have to put it in 4H if i wanna move more than 1 Ft. an hour... Sad

Why won't reverse work?

You can leave it in double, just pick a higher gear in the trans.

im talking about just reverse...It works...but, there is all ready so much reduction that it is to dam slow! I guess i can hook up a reverse warning like a box truck. Lets put it this way. A F'ing turtle with no legs is going to go faster than i will in reverse!!! Mad

You don't want revolvers esp in the rear. They are "ok" in the front, but you need a long slip front drive shaft and front limiting strap or winch.

Just get the damn thing done. Wrap bar and shocks should be easy to get her done.

BTW, you may want to put a tailgate on that thing, seems that gas tank could just slide out...
