I wonder if there will be a new company that will specialize in electric version of 4X4? It is much harder to modify the suspension and drive train for EV, however. I can't see how one can do that easily to Cybertruck, for example, when it finally available.

I dont know if anyone else will step up. With those two closing shop it will pretty much eliminate any do it yourself conversion kits on the market for the coil sprung conversion vans. There are some other obscure 4x4 conversion places around, but they dont sell do it yourself kits. Ujoint Offroad sells kits for leaf sprung trucks but not coil sprung. Ujoint Offroad is great if you want to ditch your front bumper to install four wheel drive.
