Default 4x2 to 4x4

I'm pretty sure my truck is the base model for its time, just with a gold paint job. How hard and expensive would it be to turn it into a 4x4 from its stock settings. Would buying another truck be cheaper. I have never really worked on my truck yet but I want to start.

Yes. The conversion can be done, but takes time money and knowledge. It would be easier and cheaper to buy a 4x4

Depending on your trucks year, and frame, converting can be impossible.

Buy a 4wd truck or make due with 2wd

My 2002 is 2wd. Cost me about $3000 to make it a 4x4 because I bought the 1999 that is a 4x4. LOL
