Long bed frames and burb frames have the same 127" wheelbase,you would have to add the extra body mount brackets from the burb.Where would you have to cut 12" out?

don't know what you guys are smoking, but suburban frames are 115"w/b and l/bed were 127"w/b the last time that I checked. body mounting from "b" pillar back is different and the rear frame is different. 60-66
