Electric Assisted Jeep?

I was wondering if anyone could make some suggestions on a system I was thinking about for my jeep. (well bennelson suggested it )

I was thinking:
I'm gonna swap a diesel into my Grand Waggoner and I wanted to think of some electrical assist system. How about a electric motor attached to the front driveshaft by a chain. That way when 4x4 was engaged, the diesel engine could still take over and power the front.

How would one go about controlling the motor? Can't have front and back running at different speed.

Thanks!
Josh
