I'm going to have to do it to mine too. It's about the only hole I could pick in my old one, so knowing there's a mod for it is brilliant. They will need some respect I would have thought - this mod will put a lot of strain on the drivetrain if only one wheel has grip. But then the rear diff should allow slip in that situation and cover it as long as you don't do anything daft.

shud be fine. On Rangers can ya shift from L to H 'on the fly' i wonder? If you can that would sooo useful when moving off on an incline with a load on or lugging a weighty trailer.

 

 

On my antique Isuzu ya hafta stop to shift from L to H so i simply negotiate the incline in 2L then stop to briefly shift back into 2H. It's ideal fer reversing the chipper / Laden Ifor into my driveway or dealing with the steep hills i have to contend with where i live.

 

God i love my truck.

I suspect you may be able to on the later Thunder models , some have lectric selection. Mine is manual , so no but low box will give you enough speed to negotiate the incline ..
