Thanks a lot, Rosco. I think I'm going to go with Stefano Prosseda's
variation, which you also mention on your webpage

http://www.brickshelf.com/cgi-bin/gallery.cgi?f=9341

I clearly didn't quite understand the concept and now see how my design • had
way too many gears only to accomplish something totally unnecessary: • feeding
input force to both axles of the diffrentials, instead of one axle and the
diff body and using the other axle for the outputs.

I made also a "one-way" version, it's built in the undercarriage of this:

It's basically the one above, but with two gearboxes at the input ports.
In this way, I think the best design it's undoubtly the Doug Carlson's one
