I'm a newbie here but as far as I have learned so far, you can only go up to a '87. I could be wrong though

283, if by sub, you mean Suburban, then yes, I think it would swap. Suburbans, K5 Blazers, Crew Cabs and even some fleet trucks kept the 73-87 body style until 1992. It's not hard to tell, if the steering box is mounted outside the frame rail then it's the old style frame. Hope that helps.

I am guessing one would be using the suburban crossmember for a later model tranny swap like a 700r4 or something like that? yes/no ? elaborate?
merely curious. -W |
