Re: 4wd conversion
Doing just the opposite, It is much easier to go from 2wd to 4wd. The rear spring mounts and bump stop mounts are different. Also the overloads mount lower on the frame.

Re: 4wd conversion
You guys are crazy, you know they sell those things everyday!?! They made those things like doritos! Why not just buy 4X4...
