2by to 4by

["Jeff" <tark_terra@domain.elided>]

That's apretty strait foreward swap.  I haven't attempted it myself, but I talked to Tom Lang, and he said his 2wd RHD just has a dummy solid front axle bolted to the springs instead of a live one.  All you need is a parts (smashed or rotted) 4wd scout, drop the fornt axle in and swap out your tranny/transfer for the 4 by setup.  The bull gear and the tranny/transfer mounting is biggest question.  You will obviously need different drive shafts.  But I think brakes and all controls will fit right up.
Now, if your going from 2by pickup into a Scout II, right me back........................
Good luck,
