Thanks everyone for the replies. I have 2 swb 4wd trucks here to measure from, and it looks like the difference is definitely in the spring hanger location, relative to the end of the frame. The lwb has a 7" +/- bolt pattern, while the swb has a 5". I think we're gonna go for it, and see what happens. I'll report back with the results in a week or two, thanks again for the help.
