Re: 1952 GMC "Demon Speeding" Project

Well, i do construction for a living, so im always having to come up with ideas on how to make stuff work. I also like to do metal work and weld. So that im not too worried about. I have read the other threads and am pretty sure I can do it. Only thing I am afraid about with my S10 is that when i was in high school i cut the spring pockets and put air bags in the front. not saying I did it wrong but i remember what a nightmare i had using the air bags. (could be because i was young and didn't use the best of supplies)

I would rather use the stock frame and just get a new front and rear. I have an older friend who has a "junk yard" of any and all vehicles that I could possibly get parts from. BUT if this 52 frame is past the point of being used then I will move on from it.

So I see the same thing you guys see, the front support has been cut down the middle. does that mean the front has been bent in? It doesn't look like its been much if any at all. Can anyone get me an inside measurement of what a stock frame is suppose to be, that way i can see what mine is sitting at. I guess thats what i'm trying to figure out. Can I still use the frame without having to unbend it back (if its been bent/cut)
