pstdf.jpg The PSTD eB was an interesting exercise in vehicle construction, but totally impratical as a street truck, work truck, or trail truck.  With the big E4OD, there isn't room for a t-case, and the dead front axle hits the oil pan.  The wheelbase is too short for towing or hauling, and the 9" rear axle can't handle 1/2 what the engine can push through the trans.  So it might as well have a turboshaft or a nuclear reactor.
