Sort of. It would be easier to cut the rear of both frames, and use the rear of the frame of the 1/2 ton with the suspension to do the swap you want (since you have it available). You will need to make a plate at the bottom of the frame to match the rail highths, but if you are cutting and welding a frame it should not be too much more of an issue. I shortened the frame on my 3/4 ton and then swapped in 1/2 ton suspension; I wish I had just cut up my donor frame at the same time.
