I want to do this mod. But, need confirmation it is do-able and more than one person says it can be done. Is there anyone out there with mileage on their rig after doing this mod? Please tell the rest of us.
@riverratcadillac just did this. Unfortunately he hasn't been able to put many miles on it yet. The 2 gears are all that's needed inside. He will hopefully weigh in.
