You can actually just buy a cradle from ford still that just bolts the box straight up or just weld a 4 inch plate along side the original mounting point to allow a 2wd cradle to fit..
The prop is 60 mm shorter than std...
Its a very easy conversion and transforms the escos to something very different from the others...
Once youve driven a std 4x4 il let you have a go in my 4th converted 2wd escos but it wont be for a month or so because im just getting it all sorted as we speak...
