1975 c10,how to make my LB into a SB - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Hey everyone, new to the site and was wondering If anyone could help me out with my 75 c10 long box, I'm look to make it into a short box and slam it in the weeds, the truck was passed down so I don't wanna part with it, I live up north so it next to impossible to find a short box frame, I'm on a limited budget so I'm just wondering if it can be done and if anyone has done it, any help would be great thanks.

how is that frame coming out man?... did you start cutting it yet?....

Got it marked out this morning and gonna start cutting right away, I'm just gonna check my measurements for the 10th time just to make sure that it gonna be right. Hey what kinda drop did you put on your truck? Do you know how low I can go with out "C" notching the frame or air bags? I really like the way your truck is sits. This is my first project and I don't know to much about lowering trucks. My last truck I had was an 89 siverado and it had a 2-3 drop on it but I wanna go as low as I can with the 75.
