Very true. I always kick myself for not buying a used Limited over my used XLT. Cost less to buy the top of the line model (used of course) over trying to upgrade.

A friend named Section525 is the only person I know of that has done it. I know some others are wanting to do it, but don't know if they have or not. Here is his site: Section525

If the vehicel was goiong to be worth something when this was all finished, mayber you do it. But that's not the case here and you are going to be tearing it up anyway. Find a cheap 4WD is my advice.
