If you were going to do that, why not just chop and swap?

Take his shortbed 3/4 ton that's not running anyway and cut the frame off behind the cab and swap it with the crew.

Then he can swap his half ton suspension from the white truck.

See I fix things FAST!!!

Re: My 93 Crewcab Build

Have you figured out haw to shorten the Frame Yet, Gonna be a Challenge because These frames are so much different than the Sqr bodies.......

Man o man, Don't get me started on CL, I had a Guy supposed to come at noon today & i waited 2 hrs for a no show no call........

I have & will never do that to somebody unless it were an emergency, Would still have the Courtesy to Call...........

Did u notice that someone else is gonna build one also??

Thats just the crew cabs, that doesn't include the 67 Camaro, the ex cabs and the reg cabs! I need to thin the herd! Would save me alot on insurance, that's for sure.

Re: My 93 Crewcab Build

Got the bed off and some measuring in, think it might be a whole lot easier to move the hangers and find a gas tank than hassle with cab and bed mounts but im going to measure a bunch more and see...
