12v aint computer controlled, upgrading it is kinda like a carbed motor compared to a fuelie, its cheaper and easier to do the carbed motor

Good too hear from pro. It was getting quiet around here without you.

Oh I once new a guy who did a duel battery setup on his truck and he hooked them up in a seares cause he was gonna run a 24v winch, he mixed up his winch cable and battery cable that goes too the solioid. The entire electrical system had too be rebuilt, I think his insurance told him to ****off when he tried too claim it. This is when I worked at an electrical shop.

By the way, it was a 90s dodge ram 4x4.

You guys are harsh. All I'm asking is what is required in converting my 2wd Chevy to a 4x4 offroad machine. Is that so difficult a question? Has anyone done this? Is it hard? My buddy has a shop and a torch. He says it'll be easy and I want to go mud bogging this weekend so let me know, k?

So how hard CAN I wheel a 2x4?

Great, wish I could afford too go too hawaii, hell if I could afford to go, then I might just have too buy a round ticket for me and my bronco.
I could go around a pick up some nice native hotties around that place, and they would be just like my bronco,

Topless.
