A: Absolutely! The writeup will likely appear in FSJ Magazine (yes, there is 
a magazine out there aimed specifically at the owners for Full Size Jeeps 
and especially at the OEM powerplant ones. Very few "alternate" drivetrain 
sources make it to the pages unless REALLY special) as it's done. (I just 
wish I had the money and time to do it all at once!) I hope to have it all 
done in time for the Ouray, CO FSJ Invasion 2005.

Holy sh***t... never occurred to me to use 4WD junk to couple
in a 'lectric engine.



I hope you're documenting this hack?
