If you have a comparable year 4wd availabe to provide all the parts, have lift, air tools, and large welder you can do it relatively straight forward replacement/addition of parts- this doesn"t mean it is easy. I know of a couple shops that did some 4x4 conversions- like a Rambler body on shortened Dodge power wagon frame and a 327 chevy engine for example- or Chevy C20 getting Blazer 4x4 powertrain from rolled Blazer. Ford 2wd would have the dual swingarm front that would be replaced by front axle- probably need to cut front of frames to splice 4wd axle into 2wd body/frame- what was done with the add Blazer front axle to C20 , that was leaf spring solid axle replacing A arm independant. Does the Ford 4x4 have coil spring and reaction rod to frame in about same place as independant dual swing arms? Then maybe lots of bolt changing but no frame welding. RN

Today's Featured Article - 12-Volt Conversions for 4-Cylinder Ford 2000 & 4000 Tractors - by Tommy Duvall. After two summers of having to park my old 1964 model 4000 gas 4 cyl. on a hill just in case the 6 volt system, for whatever reason, would not crank her, I decided to try the 12 volt conversion. After some research of convert or not, I decided to go ahead, the main reason being that this tractor was a working tractor, not a show tractor (yet). I did keep everything I replaced for the day I do want to restore her to showroom condition.
