You will have to do some file edits because no hooks for that
in forumdisplay.php .. directly under

PHP Code:

$navbits[''] = $foruminfo['title']; 


put

PHP Code:

$forum2list = array(1,2,3); //id's of forums of forum2.php
if (in_array($forumid, $forum2list)) {
    foreach ($navbits as $key => $value) {
        if ($key == 'forum.php') {
            $nav['forum2.php'] = $value;
        } else {
            $nav[$key] = $value;
        }
    }
    $navbits = $nav;
} 


and put the same code in showthread.php directly under

PHP Code:

$navbits[''] = $thread['prefix_rich'] . ' ' . $thread['title'];

If you don't want to edit files you can use the next hook location and redo all navbar work
for example
showthread_complete in showthread.php

PHP Code:

$navbits = array();
$navbits[fetch_seo_url('forumhome', array())] = $vbphrase['forum'];
$parentlist = array_reverse(explode(',', substr($forum['parentlist'], 0, -3)));
foreach ($parentlist AS $forumID)
{
    $forumTitle = $vbulletin->forumcache["$forumID"]['title'];
    $navbits[fetch_seo_url('forum', array('forumid' => $forumID, 'title' => $forumTitle))] = $forumTitle;
}
$navbits[''] = $thread['prefix_rich'] . ' ' . $thread['title'];
$forum2list = array(1,2,3); //id's of forums of forum2.php
if (in_array($forumid, $forum2list)) {
    foreach ($navbits as $key => $value) {
        if ($key == 'forum.php') {
            $nav['forum2.php'] = $value;
        } else {
            $nav[$key] = $value;
        }
    }
    $navbits = $nav;
}  
$navbits = construct_navbits($navbits);
$navbar = render_navbar_template($navbits);
