did Thalass end up making his electric brumby or is this someone else?

I would have left it 4WD or made it rear wheel drive

an interesting conversion and simple

I thought of Thalass (Ben) too but I think this Brumby is in Qld due to the Gympie Tint sticker on the rear?

Still would love to see Ben do it so we could see how it goes :)

yes but he would still be able to select high range and low range

and low range is good for steep driveways

and yes I agree a 2wd box would be lighter
