Good advice, by the heart of my question is:

- Can you make up for torque at the rear wheels with lower gearing, without actually building more torque into the engine?

Logically, it would seem to be true, considering that rock-crawler 4x4's make tens of thousands of lb-ft of torque at the wheels through extreme gear reduction.

Is there a hole in my logic, or is this accurate?
