2wd vs 4wd floor questions

What the difference in the floors and tunnel cover between the two?
I am looking to put a 2wd body on a 4wd frame so looking for any differences in the two and what I need to do to make this work?

Thanks

Re: 2wd vs 4wd floor questions

there is a big difference, you will need a body lift or a floor swap to clear your transfercase

this is what i did to put a 2wd cab on a 4wd frame:

Before 2wd floor:



4wd parts cab:



parts cab floor pieces in 2wd cab:



hole in 2wd cab:



finished cab:



all these pics are in my sig, 78 big 10 project

to do it right you need the hump, or you can do a 3" body lift.

So when you say floor swap you mean just the hump for tranny and t-case? That's all the difference I can tell from the pics.
