Frame Question

I’m new to 67-72 Blazers. I found a nice running & driving 70 GMC 4wd. I’d like to convert to 2wd - I have 71 2wd drive truck roller frame. What are the differences between Blazer and truck frames or is it just a body swap?

Re: Frame Question

The wheel base is different. Blazers are 104" and the SWB are 115". Not impossible to cut down though.

Most women like the strong, silent type… Fortunately for me, my wife prefers the out-of-shape, mouthy type.
