Re: frame dimensions

Well, I have recently purchased a '70 one ton and it is all original equipment. I want to buy a donor truck, replace the front drums to disk and lose the split rims. But I am interested in having a rear axle from the donor which will fit neatly into the '70.

Doesn't have to be a perfect match but the Silverados I have looked at (pictures) seem to have a much wider rear axle than the 70 C30.

I want a rear axle the same width as the one that is presently in the truck, along with many other parts the donor truck will provide. I can measure the axle in the truck I have but that does nothing to tell me what length axles are in a possible donor.

I thought frame dimensions might help to determine axle widths.
