A guy here made one that was made rom 2 old truck rearends from a ford courier and some old car parts for a few hundred dollars.he made 2 channel iron frames and solid mounted them to the axles. he mad an articulation joint. On the front he mounted a pinto motor and a small automatic transmission then put a standard transmission on the back of it. I t was off a 3/4 ton minus bellhousing and tail housing. This went ino a transferrcase all on the fron half. then put the front output to the front axle. He used a cv joint out of an old Caddy to make his dive shafts articulation and supply power to the rear axle. he then added a 3 poitn hich and hydraulic winches then a front blade. Hes used it several yeas after he logged to pull a bush hog he made and a farmed 7 acrtes with it. The totall time he made it in was 14 weeks.
