Please help. I need to put a clutch in line between an automatic transmission and a rear end in a tractor and truck pulling eliminator. When a tractor pulls me down the track, I want to stop the automatic transmission from running backwards. Is there an easy fix using something like a 12 volt electric clutch on the shaft like from a chopper head or a combine head or something from a junkyard? Thanks.

What about a four wheel drive transfer case. Will just bolt to your auto or will have to change to a 4X4 auto and transfer case. Late models are electric. Early ones use a lever. just put it in Neutral.

This may be a stretch but fire trucks (some)have a clutch to hook the drive shaft to the water pump and bypass the rear end.

Thanks. All good ideas so far. What's the best way to add a short (I don't have a lot of room) four wheel drive transfer case that I can shift into neutral. It's just that I don't want the extra weight and mass to bounce around on the end of my transmission. I only want to add a neutral.

What size axles have you got under the sled? A lot of us use 2 speeds and machine one side off so you have neutral/low or high.

Just saw the ofset case with the chain in it off and patch the hole up. While you are welding a patch on put a 3/4 pipe plug in it so you can put a little oil back in. Not pretty but will work.
