Re: 4wd to 2wd
Their are alot of ways to go. You can just use a stock 2wd front crossmember and drill alot of holes or if you want it nice and low I would go with a Dropmember from Porterbuilt here on the site. For teh real just go with lowered leaf springs, install a four link and coil/bags or get a stock 2wd trailing arm crossmember and trailing arms and have a stock set up.

Re: 4wd to 2wd
