Alot of people gave you opions on your doubler... We have been there done that.
I will go further and "run the numbers" as why it is harder on parts real simple math.
225 ft-lbs torq from motor
X
2.74 first gear in trans
X
2.72 low range tcase 1
X
2.72 low range tcase 2
X
4.10 diff
=
18,708 ft lbs of torq divded by 2 for the open diff eqauls
9354 ft lbs of torq on your u joint...
A 760x spicer is rated for 5400 ft lbs
A 297 is 4600 ft lbs...
So yes you can wheel it but sneeze and tap the gas at the wrong time and you have almost doubled the torq on that ujoint open diff.... No lock the diff and you are almost 4 times the torq....
You can dump $$$$$$ money in a rig for your purpose but some one else sees it as a waste of money. I would like to see you in the trail and see what how it does..
