Never thought of a interaxle Diff, just knew that it would be unlikely to get two tamdems to shift close enough to the same EVERY time to avoid costly tooth extraction ( gear explosions) ...interesting concept having two different axle rations and "averaging" them with a Diff......
no one has answered about the wood grain contact paper for the dash yet though.....
