Good afternoon,

This is a huge project. It will be very expensive.

You will need a transmission with a transfer case, Driveshaft, new rear differential assembly, rear suspension components, wiring harness for the all-wheel drive, and flashing of the current computer to let it know it is an AWD car.

Roughly between $8,000.00 to $10,000.00. It could be more than that.
