May be cheaper just to buy one of these, not as much fun as building it though. Independent suspension, portal axles these things are the *****.

i almost bought one of these while working in canada . 20k i was roughy 4k shortr then import fees.

the volvo stuff would work nice, but i'm in the U.S and we dont have those bad *** volvos here to take the parts out of.

i'd like to find some thing here. like a d 7 a 1/2 t-case and rung multiple drive lines. i plan to lift to 8 inches. that may allow for the other drive line.

i need to find out what the maximum pinion angle i can have on high pinion axles. if it will work that way its in my budget, rock-wells are not. no way the woman will let me spend that kind of money with out having to save for a year first ugh i hate it .

so lets search out some deuce t-cases or ones configured for dual rear out puts. the deuce unit a be a bit heavier than i'd like tho.

 

The Unimog?

 

that's german built by mercedes

 

Thats what I thought cuz I didnt think the swiss made one lol

 

Hey man that would be one awesome build and if you want to build it than you should don't let any jerks make you not do what you want

i want to run 35's since thats what i have now. i am going to measure the jeep tomorrow.

i will need to stretch quite a bit. more than the 10 inches i was planing on.

i also need to get an idea of how much more space will i need to turn around. on a normal gravel road if i need too. all tho i have no fears of driving in reverse. but i dont want to have to do this every time : no offense rossie

 

i think u could use front axles for all three axles and do it. use a driver side pumpkin up front and in the back get full width driver and passenger pumpkins and cut them down and turn them into rear axles with 2 different drive shafts. like this

 

i have one front axle and one rear. that was realy why i thought about doing this. i form what i tamek form my jeep i need to stretch 2ft , i need to see if Washington state law will let me do that. if it has to be a trailer queen because of that. then i want to build my own 6x6 buggy. steel frame with aluminum body panels. Heat , wipers, lights, and a good spot to sleep. i'm not throwing in the towel on the jeep yet.

 

I like the buggy idea better... Insulate that Some ***** and put in a sleeper in the back!

 

can one or some of you help me decipher what this guy did to the np200/205 fo dual rear out puts Pg#2

this guys rig is insane .

 

i so measured my jeep from the back of my door to my tail light. its 62 inches. i need to stretch to "82" inches. my 35's are 34 inches OD ='s 68. i'd like 4 inches between them brings me to 72 inches from front of forward center tire to rear of back axle tire.

now i would probably truss the axles. that would allow me to stagger one set of my rear leafs inboard of the other set. which would allow one axle to flex easier . so that should help the ride quality . also i can change the shock angles to be more suited to ride quality rather than stabilizing the body. which shouldn't really be a problem considering there's going to be another set of leafs and another set of shocks.

now the question is i need to figure how to mount my leaf springs. i figure leafs because there cheap and it keeps the sus geometry simple.

i need to look up the lengths of the xj leaf springs and location of the center pin. to help figure out how & ware to put the springs.

any one have some thoughts?

 

Not sure about the gearing but could you put a divorced 205 behind your existing t case backwards? If it is strictly off road you could make a dual out put drive with some rugged flange bearings, double row roller chain and some sprockets and shafts (it stands up inside a skid steer loader with serious abuse).

 

thats some thing i saw on another forum. if i wanted to go that route couldn't i just turn a 231 around backward and run it that way and leave it in the high gear, just switch it from 2-4wd in the high range to engage my rear axle?

and question if my axles are all the same gear. and i run only my 1st t-case in low that should keep all the axle in the same gear. high in the t-case is 1-1 . if i switch the main case to low, then i would turn all my axle in my low range with the divorced trans always in high gear.
