You need to unplug the 4wd module, which I believe is on the driver's side, up under the dash all of the way to the left.

Not exactly, but I *think* that it's black plastic with one connector maybe?

Was your RCSB a 4x4 or was it 2WD? Is it even possible to convert from 2wd to 4X4/AWD?

IT is possible with a ton work work and fab if 2wd was a non torsion bar frame. No one to my knowledge had done it.

Pretty sure that the OP went from 4x4 to AWD, which is a relatively easy swap...

Yeah you need to unplug the tccm. Its on the driver side up inside the dash. I think 99-02 had 2 connectors and 03+ have 3 connectors. Its a little black box probably 3" x 4" or so.
