We talking 2wd to 4x4 its gonna take a parts truck to do it right.If you can find a clean rolling k20 frame that might be better to swap your body on.

I'm doing the same thing with my 71 K20, got a dana 60 dually front end and a dana 70 rear. from a 80 1 ton. it will be easier if you have a 4x4 frame to start with, but it can be done with a 2wd frame just more work. Coop
