4x2 to 4x4 ?

[69 XCamper]

Ok, I got a stock 2x4 3/4 ton long bed sitting here waiting for resto to begin. I don't really want to keep it stock and lowering it seems like too much work. I really like the look of a high ride 4x4. It doesn't actually need to be a 4x4, I just like the look of a 6" lift and big tires. I won't be driving this in the winter, so no real need for 4x4. Has anyone ever made a 4x2 to look like a 4x4 or is this just a stupid idea and I should go back to a drop like most...I really like the idea driving by people and looking down at them....
