2wd body on a 4wd frame???

[babyburb]

I plan on swapping out the 76 sub body for a mid to late 80s for better interior options. My question is, will a 2wd body fit over a 4wd frame. I think I read that the tranny hump is higher for a 4wd. If so, how much more do I need. I was going to add a 1inch body lift but do I need 2 in for clearance?

I am also debating on narrowing the front fenders and relocating my winch behind front grill. Anyone have any pics with this set-up. Any advise pros OR cons? Also wondering if narrowing the front fenders is street legal in Texas.

Yes you can put a 2wd body on a 4wd frame. I did this with my dads suburban. If you do not change the tranny hump to the 4wd hump, then you'll need a 2" body lift. If you want to see pics of the swap, click the webshots link in my sig. There is 3 full albums of the swap I did

Good luck and post up pics
