It could definitely be done that way, and I considered that pretty extensively. However I’m going to strip all the 4wd hardware including crossmembers from the 4wd frame clip and transfer them over to the 2wd frame. I’ve measured and I’m more than confident the crossmembers and such will fit the C20 frame. I’m going to use the 4wd frame sections around the rear shackle mount to locate the holes that will need drilled on the c frame. I plan to use the front holes of the front body mount which is in the same place C or K frame as the common point to mount the template if that makes sense.

K30 stuff will not interchange into a C10 or 20 frame but K10 and K20 appear to use the same frame section height as C20 at least and I’m confident they will work. The K30 frame I’ve got is no where close to being able to work (I wasn’t gonna sacrifice that mint original paint K30 frame anyway)
