High Pinion 3rd in rear?
I haven't seen anyone do this but does anyone think it will hold up? I have aquired 2 HP E-lockers and having one in the rear axle would help my driveline angle. I may just try it and see what happens.

You'll be applying preasure to the coast(week) side of the gear while drivng forward. It is not recomended. However I personally never tried it. If your going to do it, I would highly recomend at least cryoing the gears.
There really isn't much to gain from running a high pinion in the rear over a rotated low pinion. FWIW

POW!..........What was that?
This is what you will experience if you run a high pinion in the rear.

I have seen one survive in the rear yet out of about five that I have seen installed that way.
