I am interested in adding an electric motor to my (4x4) truck.

Can electric motors (such as the typical Advanced 9") be mounted cut inline to the existing OE driveshaft that is in use by a ICE, and power as needed?
Would need to have a double shaft. Its CE shaft strength might be the limiter?

I believe the rpm isn't a problem as these motors can spin up to 6k rpm?

(or redirect to existing thread)

Thanks
