How hard is it to change a 2wd to 4wd

Getting a 4x4 truck or parts there of for the 4wd chassis with the same cab box combo would be the easiest way if you have some investment in your bodywork. Or get a 4x4 that's the trim level you want and swap your hopped up stuff to the new truck. The front end of the 2wd truck frame is quite different.

Just off the top of my head
4wd lower control arms
torsion bars
torsion keys
torsion crossmember
differential (w/ matching gears to rear axle) and output shafts (with fresh CV joints)
transmission/engine/front differential bracketry
transmission to transfercase coupler
transfer case
both driveshafts
4WD PCM (for transfercase control) that matches the truck's original, and transfercase wiring harness
Which adds up to what you could get another truck for.

make it a pre runner.
long arm suspension in the front, cheaper than any of the options discussed so far.
it would still be 2wd, but you could run real aggressive 35's and it would be way more badass.
