Are there any good guides to converting a pick-up truck to electric?
 

I think I know the basics, but there are a lot of details and step-by-step instructions that I would like to have before I try to convert a S-10 pickup truck into an electric vehicle.

Does anybody know of any good places to learn about how to go about doing this?

Thanks

I've found two websites so far.


I would want to hid the batteries under the existing truck bed, it would be easier making a frame under it I would think.

This one looks like the plan for me:

This is what I am looking for. Although, I may use a 1996 S-10 :)

We've got a wiki at DIY electric car outlining a lot of the EV conversion process, as well as a bunch of members who can answer the more specific EV questions. If I remember there are a few people doing s10 or ranger conversions so you should get plenty of support.

Note: I am a moderator there so I am biased.
