 Bill, All,
Various after market companies have been converting all Motor City vans from
2wd to 4wd for better than 20 years. Most conversions I have seen are pretty
bullet proof as they normally draw the front drives from the vans
manufacturers 4wd counterparts in the company line.
Now, however, Ford/Chev/Mopar has reclaimed this business as you can order
most any van with 4wd from the factory.
