Default Connect trans to t-case output?

I struggled with a search on this topic so please forgive me if this common knowledge. I don't have any parts yet but I would like to connect a Disruptor planetary trans to a Triton T-case by way of the front output shaft. Of course I would then connect the front axle to what is the typical input shaft instead.

Does anyone see why this cannot be done? It is 1:1 ratio.

Sidenote: If you were able to connect in this fashion could you not also over-gear the front axle with the Hammer 1.47:1 for ledge climbs?

Thanks for any "input"

Not sure on the secondary gearing question, but I run a killer case (1:1) and have it set up opposite like your asking. I did it for clearance issues and it runs no problem. You may have to flip the rear axle depending on your gear setup, because it would technically be spinning in the opposite direction it normally would. But otherwise no issues or problems.

Side note Im Running an R3 trans w/ killer trade and Yota axles w helical gears..

Awesome. Thanks for the info. I'm not sure I would need to flip the axle but I plan to run K44's & actually was wondering if I could flip the rear axle for a link mount idea I have! Twofer! Maybe...

Actually, I am thinking if the spring perches were underneath the axle I could use that to my advantage in making scale-looking lower link & shock mounts. Plus the truss would terminate more cleanly into the axle tube. That's why I want to use the output shaft as an input - just for that extra touch. Almost ready to buy some parts...
