Check out this setup. Scroll down the page a bit.
HUGE money though. I have been collecting the parts to build my own but have not started on it yet.

I would think with a little thought a small hydraulic caliper from a suitable donor vehicle (maybe a Hyundia?) and a suitable balanced and machined disc to go between the gerabox outlet flange and the drive shaft flange might work quite well. Just need a lever in the cab that runs a small master cylinder. The only issue I can think of is perhaps it may tend to shear the bolts that hold all three together because they are now holding three seperate plates. May not be an issue though.
Maybe something I will investigate in coming months.
Cheers

Tried the drum style from a GQ. There was physically not enough room.
