I dont think there are many if any 6x6 around, the rear axle on all of them I have seen are lazy
one bloke I talked to a couple of years ago had a GU with a 6.5 GM, standard wheel base and the tag axle, reckoned it was pretty good on the juice, but had 300 odd liters of fuel on board

theres a few around, few and far between though
did see one setup on ebay a year or so ago, from memory it had a highpinion in the 1st rear diff with a drive through adaptor then the normal big diff behind that
