crazy idea

i have a 66 cj5 that we have been trying to figure out what to do with it we are thinking about powering the axels with Hydraulic motors what do you guys think

Heavy, messy, lots of heat to dissipate. I say do it....

i was searching it and their is a dana44 that came with a hydro setup on it

working on a hydraulic setup doesnt bother me i used to deal with it daily just sounds fun to say my crawler is run by it

It's an interesting concept. This is the closest thing I know of to what your talking about. http://www.pirate4x4.com/forum/showthread.php?t=763311

I wish it had videos of it wheeling because that has some very interesting designs to the components.
