s10 frame swap guys...get in here

i know everyone says find a longbox s10 frame to do the swap with because its the easiest in regards to wheel placement in the rear. but why couldn't you follow the template in the link below? i plan on running a 4 link so the leaf spring mounts aren't even a concern. am i missing something? couldn't i just move the axle back about 8 inches and be okay? on like page 3 or 4, he adds about 10 inches to the back of the frame for extra bed mounts and to make a hitch. please, if i'm missing something point it out. is there a reason i can't move the rear axle back 8 or so inches? the shortbed s10s are just so much more readily available in my area...only reason i'm asking
