I agree, its much easier and quicker to sell and buy a 4x4. Youre lookin at a new axle, tcase etc... Its a helluva lotta stuff to mess with.

It'd be worth it if you could come up with a '97 wreck, but don't really see those around too much. . .

its not a clear pic, but the front end of those cars is very distinctive, they are pretty bad A$$ in my mind. Good choice.
