other benefits include a larger range of choices, diff ratios, you have two High and low. Your highway cruising will be compromised and low range will be sweet.

Duals you have unaltered high range, low range, crawler range and double low range. (I have been loooking at the Marks4wd cruiser crawler box http://www.marks4wd.com/Cruiser-Crawler.htm )

duals

I use one -works well -15 forward gears, 3 reverse and 2wd low range which is handy. More options basically. High/low selector is where standard 4wd lever is and the other goes where the coin tray thing used to be behind it. The real work is lengthening the front shaft and shortening the rear.
