A 2wd frame!!
The mounting points for the control arms are different.
although i suppose you could just take the axleshafts apart and leave the stubs in the front hubs.
Sure wouldn't help your unsprung weight though

This has been discussed two or three times before. If you use the 'search' function or just browse around you can find the threads.
