Ever Make a 4th Gen a 4X4?

I was wondering if anyone has ever heard of making the maxima 4 wheel. It would kick *** and I totally could've used it this weekend.

it has the look of a 4x4 but not the functionality.

I mean would it really be that hard to give power to the back wheels? I mean I'm sure it would be expensive, but I can't imagine it would be too difficult.

Too hard, not worth the time or money.

You would have to use a drivetrain from a 300zx or other rear wheel drive vehicle and custom fab your engine mounts.

There is no *hump* for a driveshaft, so it would have to be mounted further under the car which means the car would have to be lifted a bit in order to save ground clearance.

Basically, it would make no sense and be a hole to throw money in.

My a$$hole comment of the day:

They already make one. It's called a Pathfinder.
