thanks guys. Im talking about a
2WD. I actually got to talk to the guy that did it. Sounds like it was a pain in the butt. relocated the leaf spring mounts, major fab work to remount the cab. Said some stuff didn't line up just right but it looks pretty good. you can tell the rearend is a little to far back. he said it was fine when he sold it. He thinks somebody may have messed with the shims on the pinion angle, not sure. Some stuff sounds cool, but not so sure about buying a problem. He said the original frame was so nice he wanted to use it on another build so did the swap because somebody said it would be easy. He made it sound like a nightmare. Take a look at it at traditionautosales.com. looks sweet & its cheap.
