The right side cab mount section of the frame was damaged. It was also the wrong size and shape to splice to the suburban frame at that point. And the 3rd body mount was already in place on the suburban so there was no need to use the rear cab mounts. Farther back both frames are 4.5 inches high so we used only the rear portion of the frame rails since they were the same size. The frame is now about the same as a truck frame would be. Since this was our first build of this type we didnt want to remove the body from the front of the frame or try to splice the frames under the cab.
