not sure how you'd get the 2 rear axles to both be driven as a prop has to come out of the first axle to drive the second, like a truck :?:
could be interesting tho

......and how would it come out the back of the first axle....unless you changed the whole internals of the first axle and diff cover if it could be done, might have to be a custom made jobbie...expencive :lol:
