It's going to stay 2wd. It only snows every 3rd or 4th year for one day around these parts. Working on it this weekend. will post some updates.

You have enough frame that you could slap a crewcab and hauler body on and that would look sick with some alacola rims and some 22.5s just my thoughts though
