Those use power dividers on the rear of the transmission, and are actually fairly simple. In short its two different gears on the output shaft that are engaged by a air-actuated piston on a shift fork. I see ALOT more of these than I do two speed rears, but like was mentioned earlier that's because of the times. And most of the two speed rears I've seen don't work, but they were on pretty clapped out trucks.
