But thanks again for the advice and insight.
    Are you sure you wanna make this a daily driver in that kind of environment? I'm no expert on 4x4 but I've know a lot of people who've navigated a variety of weather conditions with 2 wheel drive. I agree that a lifted 4x4 41 Ford might not be the sleekest of streetrods but it would definitely be unique....sorta like those 4x4 Mustangs, limos, etc...


    If you're intent on some type of 4 wheel traction I suppose you might also explore some of the late model All-wheel-drive cars to see how they work. They don't seem to require the vehicle to be lifted to accomodate the underpinnings. Anyway, keep us posted.....
