i could be wrong here but..... with the dana in backwards wont the rotation be backwards?
 
Waggs,
I'm no expert, but I think you have the engine facing the wrong way in your drawing.

I'm gonna use a ring and pinion from a dana 60 front axel, you are correct and very observant........anyone with those parts please let me know

I have exactly six foot of cabin space to mount the whole deal, the rear axel is dead center of that, i can put the engine either way,mid engine such as hemi under glass or la dart style all the way to the rear.....

Why not use a Dana 60 rear axle flipped upside-down and facing rearward? Just don't forget to weld the vent shut and drill a new one. Another thought, although I'm not sure how well it would work, is a 4X4 transfer case, just running through the "front" shaft. Thinkin' maybe the old iron New Process from a 70's Dodge pickup. Think the number was NP203. This would give you 2 speeds, "4 HI" and "4 LO", which should both equal the front 2 High!
 
:glasses7:I have a Clark Cortez transaxle that might come in handy for something like this.....
 
how bout a 205 divorced transfer case??? up to 800 hp like the one here in the back of the "Waggin" ???
