Creation
This
axiom has lead to creations such as dual, triple and sometimes quad
transmission / transfer cases for a crawl ratios of thousands-to-one. Engines
and transmissions have been relocated to the middle of the vehicle to make room
for a triangle style coil spring front suspension with front and rear
suspension travel measured in feet.

The
goal is twofold: 1.
Optimal
torque multiplication (and thereby peed division) for maximum crawler
abilities. 2.
Speed
multiplication (and torque division) for greater overdrive control which
means fuel economy. Two
four speed transmissions are mated together along with a NP205 transfer case to
give a very desirable low crawler gear and excellent overdrive selection to
optimize the power of any engine design. This creation was designed so that
the rear-most transmission (between the stock aluminum transmission and
transfer case) is a HD cast iron unit to handle the increased torque
multiplication. The HD transfer case handle nearly any load. Also, a
fabricated shifter mechanism was
created and designed so that all transmissions can be shifted from inside the
SUV. |

happy traveling at half a mile-an-hour over rocky terrain? Need 500 HP to get
through that mud bog? No problem. |
