Smile MT75 4x4 Gearbox centre diff drive split

Hello All,

Hopefully someone has an answer for this.... I'm building a rear engined 4x4 project, the engine needs to be longditudionally mounted.

My plan is to use an MT75 Xr4x4 gearbox, my issue is that this box splits the drive 66/33 R/F or so I'm led to believe, that leaves me with an actual drive split of 33/66 R/F which will cause more problems that it's worth.

What i would like is the standard 66/33 split going the right way (So backwards for the gearbox) but if I can't get that then a 50/50 split would be a compromise.

Can someone tell me if its possible to flip the centre diff? If not, anyone know what parts are available for this box?

I'm not expecting this to be a cheap project but would rather it didn't get stupidly expensive..

Before anyone comments on the front / rear diff drive direction, I've more or less solved that, either way it's a different issue and would rather keep the discussion here on getting the right F/R drive split from the MT75.

All advice is appreciated!

No you cannot change the diff output, though you can buy planetaries to give you a 50/50, but they are rare.
