Welcome to the site, Tyler! With enough time and money and a lot of effort you should be able to convert the Sub' into a 4X4. The 3/4 ton frame and the Blazer frame are different and the Blazer is essentially a 1/2 ton, so it may not be a "pull and replace" situation. Since you already have both of the vehicles it may not be as expensive, but it isn't going to be a simple swap, I don't think. Good luck and have fun!
