Re: 4x2 to 4x4 swap question...
Lol I'm glad someone is as crazy as I am when it comes to flipping a 2wd for a 4x4!.I was preety much laughed out of the forum for bringing up such ideas years ago.I have been to a ton of shops locally and they all don't know what the hell to do with the truck.I have a preety 2wd silverado.I was going to do a fully conversion but after the parts list and cost it is not going to happen.If you want to do full swap you will have to change gear shift box,tranny yada yada yada so I heard anyway.But I found a great idea that I been meaning to post on here from some guy over at a 4x4 forum.He had a 2wd and just ripped the front end out(coil springs etc) and threw a axle under it added leaf springs and all he cut and welded mounts for leaf springs and the truck is not a working "4x4" but the axle is sitting there so he can LIFT the truck and have a rig he did that all for like 300 bucks.For a full conversion your talking 1500 to 2g on a good day at least for me anyway.I highly recommend that if you just want a nice rig to lift and have just go that route.A full 4x4 conversion is expensive.Its not like 4x4 are any better unless your in the sticks or something.I plan to go this route!
