Convert to 4X4

Is it possible to make a 4X4 conversion on a 2001.5 2wd? I may have a line on a donor truck already. Anyone done or heard of anyone doing this? Thanks.

John

Usually much cheaper to sell and buy one that was 4X4 from the get go.

If you have personal attachment, then either cut and splice the front of a 4X4 frame or replace frame entirely.

A LOT of work.....

This is from the conversions area.......
