Hi Denny: You make a good point about overstressing the drivetrain but some of these M's have been working 50-60 years without major rearend problems. I'll guess it's abusive drivers quite often. I've seen some just beat the He** out of whatever they'er driving. Anyway, another point is I don't think running 50HP through the drivetrain in 3ed or 4th would make so much easier than using that same 50HP in 2ed?? 50HP either way. If ya hit a stone the shock will still be to a drivetrain that's under a 50HP load. Only sure way would be to reduce power back to closer to stock 40HP?? Not downgrading anyone, just wondering about stress using 50HP nomatter the gear vs reducing to 40HP. Abusive driving is a second issue. Take care. have fun. ralph
