Re: 4x4 swap to 2 wheel drive
I just flipped the rear axle on top the rear springs and installed a 73 front cradle. I sold all the 4x4 parts and they have paid for pretty much of all the mods except for the new wear parts like bushings and such. Found a cheap 4 speed and reused my clutch and bell housing pedals and she's getting there. Just got her fired up and running the other day. Just need to weld in the new spring perches as I did not want to rely on those flimsy $40 brackets they sell for a weekend flip. I'm gonna do some wicked donuts in this baby!

Re: 4x4 swap to 2 wheel drive
Sport Truck did an article on the conversion several years ago. From what I have heard, it is a simplified version so don't look at is as a step-by-step.

Re: 4x4 swap to 2 wheel drive
thanks! I have been searching for a 2-wheel drive frame and suspension but I have noticed a lot of new products out there to convert!
