    Great deal. Factoring in a 4x4 swap expenses you'd be paying $10-11k

    Considering your bed will be shorter, and you are losing 4X4, I hope that the DC comes manual with the 3.4L and a fine little honey sittin shotty...

    Don't do it. Shop CL in a different state, go further for 4x4.

    my $.02.

    Yeah man, I really think getting a 2wd with intention of swapping is not a good plan... But it's your money, time, headache :)

    Really y'all are overthinking the whole 4x4 swap stuff. It's not like you're gonna go try some hardcore wheeling right after you buy it.
    The swap isn't as hard as it sounds, everything is meant to bolt right up. Logan don't let it being a prerunner drive you away from a good deal.
    If you need any links or anything regarding swapping I got you.

    I know it isn't that hard. I've taken most of the front 4x4 components out of the front, and I'm a fairly green mechanic. What I see as being a pita is compiling all the components, making sure the parts are in good working order and cleaned up, and the reality being that these kind of projects generally take longer and cost more than anticipated.
