Default MAN 6 speed 6x6 (4WD+2WD trailer)

Rough mock-up of a new build incorporating a LESU 3 speed trans, Helios 2 speed transfer plus a shaft running off of it out the back to power a trailer. Losi worm axles.

Boy, that transmission sure is purty. Does it have front and rear output shafts or rear only?

Rear only

the 2 speed case will distribute power to all three axles like this Volvo

I also have just picked up a Lesu 3spd transmission and Helios 2spd transfer box for my 6x6 build.
I ran the ratios through a spreadsheet, 3rd low and 1st high have a slight overlap but there is a good ratio spread there to make an awesome crawler!
I hope you can fix the Photobucket issues so I can see your build progress so far haha.
