I`ve heard so many versions of cans and can`ts.Lets seperate Myths from facts.I`ve never tryed swapping,so I`m not claiming to know any facts.I`ve heard:frames are different in front,spring(leaf)perches are different in rear...Can you use a 2wd frame to install factory 4wd(same year)?What would it take to convert a K5 into a C5?Why are K20 cab mounts listed seperately?Who`s done what and what`s involved?
