howdy friends, just had an idea that came to me on the way home from work tonight, thought Id see what yall think.
How about a crew cab 5 ton tractor? Id like to add another drive to the rear. Use lift axles on the first and third axles. A power divider in the first rear, and if there is such a thing, but cab controlled air lock out hubs on the third rear(?). Maybe a 10 spd Eaton and either a Cat or Cummins turboed I6. Same transfer(hopefully). Id use 2 trucks and lengthen the frame for the third drive and more space between the cab and the fifth wheel. Anybody know the std gearing in the 5 tonners rears? Anybody know how HRD's coming w/ his deuce crew cab? Id like to know how he's combining his cabs. This is just an idea and wont be built for a couple years. All questions/comments/suggestions are welcomed. Thanks for the help fellows.
