Default 2500 4 link conversion

Ok so after hours of dead ends. I have been thinking about converting my 2wd Cummins into a 4x4 since there are no lifts available for mine. I know its going to cost and be allot of work but I want to know if anyone has done this.

No lifts available for a 2wd Cummins?

Anywho, if you have time, money, and fabrications skills and find a donor truck then you could do a conversion.

But it dang sure isn't gonna be easy. A custom lift kit for your 2wd would be cheaper I'd bet.

Selling it really isnt a option. Since finding a new one with 6 speed is like finding gold in my area. I wish it was that simple. And all i really want to do is convert it into the 4x4 version.

Like Merc said just search for that fella. He did a SAS. But he is still only 2wd.. gonna take a good bit of money and fabrication... Not worth the time in my opinion
