Rwd eb to 4x4 ???

[Survival]

Is it possible to turn and 03 EB RWD to a 4x4? If so how? And how costly can that be ? I know some already come 4x4 but mine isnt...

Everything is possible...but it will cost a lot....

My humble opinion: you'll better sell your 2WD and buy a 4wd.
OR you go to a junkyard and take all the pices out from there, but it's really a big job!

If I were to that, I would do non electric drive transfer case and put manual hubs on it. Make it bullet proof. I would also think about getting better(lower) gear ratios in the transfer case. Also rebuild anything you put in since it is already out and a lot easier to do.

I would sell my 2WD and buy a similar 4WD. You will spend more on parts and labor than the price difference between the two trucks.

well since its 2wd.... look into a solid axle swap and go huge...lol don't think you wanna lift it but to go 4wd would cost more than selling your 2wd and buying a 4wd... especially if you head south

Thanks for the info...i had a feeling that it would cost alot...i guess ill just leave it as is for now...but thanks anyways...now another question is...is it like an unspoken rule to do the 4x4 look even though its not really 4x4 ?

i dont think there is an unspoken rule. some may give you crap in jest. but i say your expy do what you like. besides out here in socal there are plenty of lifted 2wd trucks.

lifted 2wd's are called pre runners.

Once again thanks...I'm totaly new to the truck scene but I'm tring to get it right...well atleast now I know that there's a word for lifted 2w trucks...thanks...

Lifting a 2WD may hurt re-sale value. When I look for a used truck, I like 4WD for the traction, or 2WD for lower cost and ease of getting in and out, washing windows, option to pull it into a garage, etc.

So, if you lift a 2WD, you have none of the benefits of either 2WD or 4WD, and only the drawbacks of each.

Your truck is really clean. You'll get better money for it if sold unmolested.
