I've got a 4K with 100mm flanges that I put on.  Both the 2H and the 4K came
with 90mm's originally.  To put 100's on a 2H you'll need to do a little bit
of clearancing to the case, from what I understand, but I haven't actually
tried.  You could just use the 2H as is and switch to 90mm axles.  I believe
Scott is right about the difference in final drive ratios though.
