Sweet! What was involved in swapping onto the 2006 frame? I would imagine its shortened, but any body modifications or anything? Looks like a nice clean fit. |

Re: How about some pics of '73-'87 Short Beds Part II
Ya frame was shortened body was sat on and mounts were made. It was fairly easy and I've done a few more the same way since. Currently building 72 gmc with duramax

Re: How about some pics of '73-'87 Short Beds Part II
I've seen what would seem special order color combos on older trucks but never a square.

Re: How about some pics of '73-'87 Short Beds Part II
Been away way too long, trying to be back on here lately. A few updates since my last consistent logging on here. Been trying to catch up on all these post here still. During my absence I went thru a divorce, painted my truck, finally finished my college degree in computer information systems and currently remodeling my house between buying more trucks. LOL. here is bipolar painted and a recent purchase, I saved a 1981 short bed from the scrap yard. found out the new purchase is a 1 owner NC truck with 140k original miles and runs great, picture of brown truck is the day i brought it home before cleaning it up.

What’s your drop set up? Love the stance. And that’s tire size? Thanks!
