Re: my new crew cab
Tough lookin truck! You might just be on the look out for a 1/2T frame. Changing all that heavy duty stuff might be more time consuming, than just swapping frames. I swapped cabs on my truck. Went from rusty 3/4T cab to nice loaded Silverado 1/2T cab. Piece of cake........Chassis was somewhat different between the two. Good luck.

Re: my new crew cab
There are several crewcab conversions posted on here. It just depends on which way you want to go.

Re: my new crew cab
I still think you should keep the DRW. But That is because I wish I had one for a family cruiser.
