Sell your current truck and buy a diesel. Easiest and cheapest.

Cheapest way is definitely to sell the current truck and buy a diesel, however, if you're set on doing the conversion, Chris Mallet is doing the same thing right now...
The 03 1500 12 Valve Conversion has begun.

It could be added. But it kinda falls under the "My truck is a 2wd and I want to make it into a 4wd" entry.
