frame question
i have 65 chevy swb and was wondering if anybody knew or heard of anybody trying this. i have buddy that has an 2002 chevy swb frame that has already been bagged. he kinda lost interest in bagged trucks and instead put his body on a custom lifted frame. does anybody know if i could make this work under my 65.

Re: frame question
its only metal, it would make your old truck handle like its on rails. it would be alot of work, as there have been alot of changes in the last 40 years. it would be far easier to just use his suspension in your frame.

Re: frame question
The truck frames changed quite a bit in '88. It could be done, but some fabrication will be required.
