Default How to make center axle - Sawback

My search powers must be abysmal. I'd like to 6x6 my Sawback. Is there a way to modify the gmade Sawback axles to create a center axle? First 6x6 and I've never worked with center axles. I can't seem to find anything on how to convert any axle to a center axle (with good instruction and images). Could anyone point me in the right direction?

I've spent a lot of times on forum, but never heard of a 6x6 Sawback
If you can't make a center axle, you can still go for a 1:1 transfer case, just for the 2 rear axle, or a 3 output like this

I think one will rotate unlike the 2 other...

I'm using that exact transfer case for my G63. Since I'm using 1.55 Growler tires, and keeping them spaced fairly close together, the rear most driveshaft with a pass through center axle becomes too short to even work. So I'm planning on doing a carrier bearing mounted offset on the front side of the center axle.

I'm using narrowed AR60s with XR10 lockouts to keep the rear pumpkins offset 30mm from each other, while keeping SCX10 width, to make the already tight packaging of a double triangulated 4 link (rear-most axle links still chassis mounted, not off the center axle) work.
