Never mind. I found it. If anyone is interested:

I have had this one on the truck for 4 months now and it's working flawlessly. Even after parking the truck for a few weeks, it starts right up. Before putting the equalizer in, it would...
Yes, this I can understand. If the inner gear is splined to the axle housing then I can see that it would be too difficult to disengage that. I had all my hubs apart about a year ago , pre eco hub. I would have paid more attention to how it is setup on that end if it was post eco hub. (y)
Ron, I'm not talking about the reduction, I'm just talking about selectively connecting the out bevel gear to the hub cover. This just takes the reduction out of the equation, when you want. I have tremendous respect for you. I'm just not sure if anyone understands what I'm trying to say.
Yes, I understand the principle of the reduction. Let's just forget about the reduction. I'm not proposing doing anything to it. Let it do what it's doing. Can we all agree that the axleshaft and bevel gear are splined together and relative to the hub cover (covering the reduction unit, with a...
Just so you know. The outer gear is splined to the axle and if you pin it to the hub, the hub and wheel will spin at the same speed as the axle shaft, no spinning planatery gears at that point. Un-pinning allows it to spin the planetary gears, giving you the reduction. You don't lock it or...
Wow harsh! Like I said, just throwing an idea out there. Last time I checked, this was a forum for questions, comments and ideas. Last time I'll make that mistake. Let me put my dunce cap on and retreat to my corner.o_O
There is only 1 coupling or uncoupling operation, not simultaneous. The single gear is either coupled or uncoupled.
Some of us use our trucks more offroad than on and I personally like to keep all the torque for more serious offloading. But, if I could also get more driveability on the road...
Why not take the eco hub idea and make it selectable, like the old school 4wheel drive selector on the hub? I envision a selector on the outside of the hub that pushes pins into the outer gear of the original planatery, effectively locking the gear to the hub (no 2 to 1) or unlocking and...
I've had aftermarket speedos on dirt bikes that use the same kind of proximity sensor and they are super robust offroad, as long as the mount is made equally robust. I would imagine mounting the magnets to the brake drum to keep them more protected by the wheel. The electronics would of course...
Just paying devils advocate here:
Couldn't you use a hall effect speed sensor and a couple of small magnets glued to the wheel for a simple and cheap solution?
