I got to ask why do you want/need a 2 speed axle?
First you need to find a 2sp axle. I want to say they could be found in F500 and up trucks. They came as duel wheels and is big & heavy.
So even if you found one I don't see how it will fit your 250.

Now let's say you found one I don't know if they ever offered it in posi?

Then you can't use 4x4 as front & rear ratios will not match.
I still don't see the need for it.

If the desire for a 2 speed axle is to have a creeper gear, just use 4 LO.
