Ford Courier 4WD conversion

Has anyone ever tried to convert a Courier to a 4WD ?
I'm wondering if I can use Ranger parts to convert it like thee front and rear axle.....

Ford Courier 4WD conversion

yes I have had 2 of them, one 1973 mazda b1600 and a 1981 courier longbed

the older one I used a 1979 toyota front axle and springs, the other one used a jeep dana 30 front axle

but you have to do some wlding and modifycation to do it, hope your good with a torch and welder.

any more questions about how I did them feel free to email or IM me.

I dont think the Ranger stuff is the way to go becuse its the twin ibeam indapendent drive and is harder to convert,(in my opinion anyway).
