that's by far the easiest way ^^^

or a solid axle swap. your truck doesn't have the 4wd frame, so those are your two options.

oh, and next time don't post technical questions in the introduction section

na na na you guys have it alll wrong, step one, get a 4x4 ranger in front of your truck with the wheels chalked.

step 2 back up with enough room to get up to about 70 mph in your truck, step 3 loosen 4x4 body bolts

step 4 loosen 2wd body bolts

step 5 get her up to about 70 mph give or take 5 mph, and ram the back of the 4x4 the body should slide right onto the 4x4 frame to make a clean transfer.

step 6 put new body bolts in and clean up the mess

im not responsible for anything that could possibly go wrong in this delicate procedure.

but honestly this topic has been beaten to death, gotta search for your answers.
