I'll assume that you have two mini tcases with busted rear outputs huh...

:flipoff2:

No, I have a 79 FJ40 buggyish thing with 1 tons, the stock six turbocharged and running off of propane/SM420/dual mini tcases. 

I really am concerned about the rear output and the ability of front dig..

Ok...I know I'm kind of dense sometimes, but 'splain what a "front dig Toy tcase" is ?
The things that come to those who wait, may be the things left by those who got there first.

A transfer case that gives you the option of front wheel drive only.
Marlin has been working on perfecting one for a few years now.

I don't get the "dig" part...but, thanks for clearing that up!

So then Marlin needs to make an adapter to connect a D300/Atlas to a Toyota trans?  :thumbs:

There already is a disconnect out and two others under development. I'm not gonna say who or where, pretty easy to find in a search.

I have the trail tough/ fror disconnect and I'm happy with it but a sealed unit would be nice. Muddy conditions don't allow it to move easily.
