Well let the adventure begin. I'm about to jump right in there and try to attach an electric motor to my 1994 Geo Tracker.
Straight onto the front wheel gear shaft. First removing the driveshaft from the tranfercase to the front axle. Then framing a mounting assembly to support and house the electric motor. Then simply do the basic additions of batteries, wiring and system controls. My desire is to utilize the electric power for stop and go, 0-45 miles per hr driving. The Gas power for constant higher speed drivng. Mabe try a little low speed 4 wheeling using both power plants together. I'm guessing this could take about a 100 hrs to complete, which having to work around so many other projects, could take me a few months to getter done. If anyone is interested, I will hope to give progress up-dates.
