There was a page with frame dimensions on it. I think I have it book marked on my other computer.

LWB truck frame = 127"
Blazer frame =104"
SWB frame =115"

Therefore you would need to take out 23" out of the frame, or if you used a swb only 11". The above dimensions are wheel bases so you would need to cut inbetween the wheel openings to move them closer together. Then on the front or back would depend on where the body mounted you will need to relocate body mount brackets then depending on how the body aligned on the frame any modifications may be needed for correct crossmember locations and mounting fuel tank and bumpers.

dimensions came from here
