4wd conversion on removeable top 4runner
hey everyone,
i've been reading lots of posts about 4wd conversions on the site here. I have a few quesitons still.

The reason i'm wondering, is because I have a 82 solid axle that is fairly built (tires/springs/gears/lockers) but the engine and frame are getting old and tired.

If i bought an 86-89 2wd 4runner for cheap (there are some around I've seen for a great deal) would the swap be fairly straight forward?

I want to stick with solid axle, so I would rip off all the ifs parts.
weld on some spring perches, float the axle, swap tranny and transfer case.

is that about all I would need for the swap?

thanks in advance!
