Default 4 x 4 conversion on a series 2

I have had a few escort turbos before and have had a lot of other performance cars and always come back to the trusty old series 2 rst, i did promise myself a 4wd motor next but have been offered my old series 2 back and realy fancy having it, so ithought if it can be done why not do it, has it ever been done if so who would do it ? how much work does it involve ect

If you can do all the fabrication yourself then it's not that expensive if you cant then it works out expensive

rs2000 running gear would be a good option on a budget, but isnt great.

celica gear would get my vote, but you are talking MASSIVE project really.
