Running two gearboxes

[chipv8]

Just a thought, has any one thought about running a landie with two gearboxes fitted in line? The ratios for crawling would be awesome, I know the Yanks have done it but I cant find any landies, what are your thoughts?

They already have I know what you mean though. Ian Ashcroft makes an underdrive which is a third inline gearbox for crawling.
