"A FWD car hauler"
I've had this idea cross my mind, too. I've brought it up with lots of people,as in basically how durable would a pick up, originally a 4wd, converted to only only FWD Be ? If you removed the rear diff, banjo/axles, moved the tanks and all that stuff up forward, you could drop the bed less than a foot off the deck. American 4wd trucks are basically rear drive first, so how strong is the front diff ? Take it a step farther and widen the bed , maybe stretch it a couple feet longer, , and Voila !, a drive in race car carrier.
