i have found some 406's that i'm going to check out and have a few questions i need help with. i'm looking to swap them into my k5.
i searched the board and read sapper's info page.
are 406's from a SEE tractor the same as one's out of a regular unimog truck?
are there any other gear ratio's for the 406 besides 6.52, 6.06 & 5.30 ?
how much air pressure is needed to activate the lockers?
this one sounds stupid but someone told me this and i don't believe it's right. does a unimog tcase spin the output shafts in different directions going foward, meaning would i need 2 fronts or could i use a front and rear behind my 205? that is it for now. TIA

the tcase outputs spin the same way. the pinion is on the "wrong" side of the ring gear, thus spinning the shafts backwards, which in turn gets changed to forward rotation at the portal gears.

Its cool as hell watching front shaft spinning backwards, as the truck is coming towards you. :D

so are you saying that a front & rear would work then?
