Thanks Manny,
Very cool, but this is for rock crawler applications. I didn't see any overdrive ratios available. Syncro split shifting is my goal. My lowest ratio in my TWPW is 60:1 which is lower than my 48 CJ2A with 5.13s had, due to the 6.68:1 first gear. I did all the hairy stuff way back when with the CJ2A. The Townie is just not that kind o beast... Too Big. Maybe they will come up with some other ratio sets.
The Warn/Atlas overdrive works in any gear, 4wd, reverse. It mounts on the back side of the input shaft of the Dana 18. They are maybe $1500 these days.

PS fun note: at Potatoe Salad hill in Moab once I saw a HumVee break and one of those totally tricked out custom V8 rigs fail to make it up. What did? A cowboy and his girlfriend in a beat, bone stock, late 60s Chevy truck. These guys spend Tens of thousands on a rig to get beat by an old truck!
