dev_mount sdcard2 /storage/external_SD auto /devices/platform/msm_sdcc.3/mmc_host
dev_mount sda /storage/USBstorage auto /devices/platform/msm_hsusb_host

dev_mount sde /storage/external_SD auto /devices/platform/msm_sdcc.3/mmc_host
dev_mount sdf /storage/external_SD auto /devices/platform/msm_sdcc.3/mmc_host

Or in a shell you could umount the internal sd then loop mount the external sd folder to the internal sd folder.
 
Try this:

dev_mount sdcard2 /storage/external_SD auto /devices/platform/msm_sdcc.3/mmc_host
dev_mount sda /storage/external_SD auto /devices/platform/msm_sdcc.3/mmc_host
dev_mount sdb /storage/external_SD auto /devices/platform/msm_sdcc.3/mmc_host
dev_mount sdc /storage/external_SD auto /devices/platform/msm_sdcc.3/mmc_host
dev_mount sdd /storage/external_SD auto /devices/platform/msm_sdcc.3/mmc_host

Nevermind, disregard everything before.

Here is an app to do it. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=eu.codlab.int2ext

Here is an xda thread for it.http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2346389

Can you use a shell(Terminal emulator or adb shell)?

If so then use these commands line by line:
Code:
su
busybox umount -R /storage/sdcard0
mount -o loop /storage/external_SD /storage/sdcard0
