looks good. The only thing i dont understand about a dig setup like that is, when the driveshaft goes onto the pin and stops the shaft from spinning, doesnt that put strain on the tranny? I might be totally wrong and it could not make a difference. I would just hate to break a tranny.

when the servo is activated it pulls the slider down towards the axle allowing the tranny to spin freely

actually it is the opposite. when the dig is engaged, the rear drive output from the tranny does absoulutly nothing. therefore it is easier on the tranny to opperate in dig mode.
