I have done some things slightly odd for some peoples eyes but i have done this for a reason. I plan to make this a production kit for Rangers, Explorers, and Sport tracs.
I also plan to offer a kit to use a 70`s Ford Dana 44.
I co-own an offroad shop with my Brother so this is well within our realm of things possible.
We are well known for our 4wd Van Conversions in Canada on Chevy and Ford Vans and our business has been doing this stuff since the 70`s.
