3/4 ton vs 1/2 ton 2wd frame question
I got these off my 75 C20 frame and I was gonna use em on this C10 frame seems like they would add a little strength to the area when I went to put em in everything lined up except they are too short to bolt to the top of the frame I don't have any pictures of them in the C20 frame so does anyone have a 73-87 C20 they could post pics of these installed
thanks! |

The C20 frames are about an inch shorter in that area. The crossmembers are the same because nothing attached to the top of the frame. Here is the best pic I have of my truck with those mounts.

Isn't that odd... I have an 81 C20 crossmember in the front of my 64 suburban. Those inside strengtheners fit like a glove into the 64 frame.

the earlier 1/2 ton frames must be shorter too
