With a tracker/sidekick You could do a few different things. Either A hook the electric motor to the front differential of a 4WD to have electric drive in front and gasoline engine rear to have a hybrid 4WD system... Or B couple the electric motor to the front drive shaft output of the transfer case. This would be more like a parallel hybrid. You could shift the T case in 2WD to uncouple the electric motor or 4WD to run with electric and gasoline. You can then ditch the front diff and axles to save weight.
