Yes, the Bronco 2 is 4x4, and with the 2.3 I was planning to build it for (hopefully) MPGs. Makes me think I could ditch the transfer case, and mount a motor where the transfer case was.
That would be quite a similar concept to the Peugeot 3008 Hybrid4. BTW if you were considering to do so for MPGs, why not to consider a Diesel engine such as the Kubota V-2203 (I'd rather get the one with direct injection over the IDI) or a Volkswagen Diesel?
