as long as both cases were in high range (1:1 ratio), the drivelines would spin at the same speed. the doubler case would go between the tranny and 1354, so it would change the ratio to both cases.

If you can't go through it or around it, then go over it.
If you're saying what I think you're saying, you want to run the front driveline off the 1354 and the rear driveline off the 18? You're gearing would be all messed up, because you'd be running the front off just the 1354 gearing, and the rear off both the 1354 and 18 gearing. And if the 1354 were doubled, you'd just be compounding the problem.
the model 18 is 1:1 in high range. When i put it in, just leave in high range and disable the range selector. the other stick with it is the 2wd - N - 4wd lever, this is the one I would hook up.

what your saying doesn't apply. At 1:1 the output will always turn the same RPM as the input.

Edit: I would rather use a sling box to get the passenger side rear output and it would simplify everything, but a 1:1 sling box would cost around $2000 and I can get a fleet of junkyard jeep model 18 for that. The idea is to use the model 18 as a sling box. leave it in hi range so it will be 1:1 at all times (infact, some 18s didn't have a low range). Both cases don't need to be 1:1, just the rear case.

That quadra steer axle in the denali is a straight axle (like a front D60 except the diff is centered) and I believe its a D60 ....... really hard to get here and if you do find it, it must be gold plated or something.

a straight axle does not fit my potential project.

Now I see where you're coming from, You didn't mention anything about leaving the 18 in high range. (Nor do I even think about any box being in high range when you're talking about wheeling)

You're terminology on the straight axle part still leaves me puzzled, are you intending to use ifs or ttb front and rear?

at the risk of being flamed........ I am thinking running a D50 TTB in the rear. These axles are a dime a dozen here and most are in good shape (left overs from SAS) and Bronco Graveyard has a good enough selection of parts for it.......... I priced a denali quadrasteer axle and it was $1250 with 130,000 miles on it.

Nice! Quite the project, but I think it would be worthwhile in the longrun if you could figure out how to do it. Definately unique. The only other thing I could come up with for the transfercase idea would be a T-136-27 out of a 2.5 ton, which is divorced and rather like the LJ10 and LJ20 box, which the input comes in the top, and both outputs are directly below this and inline with eachother. Then, you could use divorced 205s front and rear, using only the inputs and rear outputs (the front box would be backwards) though this would probably range around the same price as your slingbox. Good luck in your ventures.
