4wd front frame rails are taller. At least at the cross member. Can't remember exactly, but about 1/2"-1". I know this because I converted a 91 1
ton V3500 to a 2wd. (Slow go project... Still not finished yet)

If this one is half as nice as the burban and crew you currently have its going to be sick. If your garage gets too full let me know, I'll help you out.

Do you have a build thread for this one? Or any of them? I don't remember seeing one.

**Dieselwrencher** · 07-02-2014, 12:25 AM

Nice thread guys! Maybe sometime I'll have better pics of mi.e to throw on here.

Hey all, this is a truck I found on Craigslist. I've been looking for a long time now trying to find a CCSB that is 4x4. I'm just wondering with everyone's experience, how difficult would it be to convert this truck? Or more or less, how much would I have in it to get it how I want?

Thanks

here is mine , I put a Muncie 4 speed in it but am not happy with it so I'm gonna swap to a TH350 till I come up with a good LS swap.

bL.A.zer90045 · 10-28-2014, 12:49 AM

what is the difference between a 77 2wd cc front suspension(control arms,etc),and a 83 cc front suspension?

My new 4x4 CCSB on the right.
My son fell in love and is moving 4000 miles away so he gave me his trucks

NastyBuzzard · 03-07-2016, 05:04 PM

Here is my short bed conversion. Also converting to 4x4 and 6.5 TD w/ Nv4500 4.10 gears Dana 60

joe231 · 03-08-2016, 04:24 PM

Nice!
I'm thinking about going the other way... Converting my 4x4 CCSB with a 6.2 diesel to a 2wd with an LS swap

I would have ls swapped mine and traded you! Heck of a lot easier than doing what I am doing currently.

That is for sure! I have everything needed to LS swap this truck but I already did that to my 87. I wanted to put a duramax in this thing but the cost is a little crazy, same for cummins so I selected the 6.5 TD. It should be all I need and then some.

Hey everyone, brand new member but long time Chevy truck guy. I was just searching Google for CCSB trucks, and found this thread. Just thought I'd post a pic of mine. Bought it back in February of this year as a roller w/transmission, since then I have converted the front clip/doors from a 90 Suburban and used the stock 350 from the Burb to get it running. Just got it on the road this past 4th of July weekend.... and discovered a BUNCH more that needs to be done! LOL I've been a square body lover since my youth (mid 80's), and owning a CCSB with stepside has always been my "unicorn". Here is a current pic, as of July 4th but there is a bunch more work to do! Shown with my nephews CCLB on the left. Pic at the bottom is from when I originally bought it.

COS399 · 07-17-2016, 07:12 PM
