Re: 1948 chevy 3100
no, unless you are going for the 4x4 look. The track width is way too wide.

Re: 1948 chevy 3100
Some things that seem like a great idea after a six pack aren't such great ideas when reality strikes and putting AD cabs on later frames is one of those. PurdueSD said above the only way they really work is when you go 4x4 with them .They sit up with what amounts to a body lift. Even then most of the ones I have seen looked pretty much cobbled together and were usually put together by someone who had rolled his late 4x4 down a mountain side and decided to put the early cab on what was left.
