Finally someone that wants to do big things with a 2wd.I have the same truck and was asking 1 year ago exactly same stuff and essentially how to convert to 4x4 and I was laughed out of the forum.Anyway you will need to do a lot of stuff like weld a crossmember from what I remember on the front etc etc.Essentially you would want to have a 4x4 so you can lift the damn thing otherwise don't waste 1-2 thousand.Im just going to throw a axle on the front with some leaf springs and call it a day like I heard some guy did on another website for 300$.
