Re: Newbie questions frame swap

I have similar ideas running through my head but with parts from the 99-07 truck. The rear are disc brakes and are well truck parts, and the front end stuff most are rack and pinion steer and the ones that aren't have torsion bars so that would be cool as well. One of the main reasons I was leaning this way is I rebuild those trucks from wrecks and have tons of that stuff laying around. I have 5 of these 67-72 trucks so that stuff to add to the suspension would be cool.I plan on setting up one of those 68 frames I have on the frame table lock it down in clamps and see what I come up with.On my "personal" truck I had also thought of suburban rear end stuff since they are different and ride so much better than the truck. [they are 4 link rear ends instead of leafs] Good luck Oh, maybe check with Alston they had been doing a bunch of C4 stuff as did Morrison. maybe that can help. I know Morrison made a frame for the C4 stuff to go in and the frame was for a later truck. Jim
