Re: 72 K30 Build
WOW!!! information overload, looks like the K/20 frame is still your best bet, but I'm more confused. I've measured my C/30 and my K/20 and all I can find is the 30 is longer, I'm sure there is some difference in rear spring mounts and such.
I'm going to take my K/20 down to the frame, use the 20 suspension and put the dana 60 dually front and dana 70 hd wide under it and go from there, yes I know i'll have to redo the spring perches on axles but that's not a problem and bingo a K/30 pickup.
Now, I don't know about there but around here 67-72 1 tons are like hens teeth, so what I'm saying is a K/20 frame and suspension would be easier to find. yes if your gonna do some serious work with it I would want the stronger 1 ton frame but for me I'll never work it harder than I have my K/20
