bennelson, you've also thought of something I considered, which was adding a electric motor to one of the axles. The front axles can be easily disengaged from the drivetrain, so I thought replacing the transfer case with an electric motor woudn't be a bad idea.
I'm still not sure how I want to go about this yet, but as it stands, the engine and transmission are both in need of replacement, so to make it a hybrid could be more expensive than making it more electric with a generator assist.
