you have to make sure you get the measurements right of your truck could "crab walk" down the road..as well as wear on tires and parts.. also need to swap trans humps as the 4x4s is high to clear t-case. since you have the 2wd steering box in place might as well conver to cross over steering.. if the frame is twicked that bad, your spring mount might be messed up as well...

If you ask me, it wouldn't be worth the trouble. I'd just buy a 4x4.
