Was thinking the other day about selling my beloved Bongo as it is only 2wd but I like it so much I don’t want to part with it, so is it possible to convert my 2wd Bongo to a 4wd?
Any help would be great

anything is possible
but new gearbox front axel and drive chain along with everything else would make it far too expensive an option

Re: Converting 2wd to 4wd?
Have you considered the possible compromise of replacing the rear axle with a LSD one? About £150 or so should see you with a LSD axle. Reasonably straightforward to swap over.
A 2WD with LSD compares quite favourably to a 4WD without. Of course, it does depend on what you need the 4WD for. If you are heading off road etc then that's a different requirement to for example just keeping mobile in the snow etc.
If your 2WD already has a LSD, the forget all after "Have you...."
