they have been put on several different frames. an easy one that comes to mind is a blazer, 80's model. Something with a flat frame. you can also take a long wheel base pickup frame from that same body style and cut the step out of the frame and flip the rear axle to compensate for the difference. i've seen them on 67-72 frames. If a man knew what he was doing and wanted a real work horse he should get him a good cab and slap it on a 94-98 dodge 12 valve cummins chassis with a flatbed on the rear. that would be a cracker jack of a truck
