Body swap/frame question
I am planning on doing a build soon and would like to know if I can swap my current 2wd 1993 Supercab/front clip onto another 4wd frame, say anything from 87-96? Or is it easier to convert my current truck to 4wd?

The easiest would be a '92-'96 Supercab frame with the same type of engine (gas or diesel). I believe you can swap onto earlier frames, but there will be wiring issues...
