Hey guys, and I need help with converting my 87 K5 blazer 4x4 to 2wd. I been reading your post on how you change the crossmember, spindles, suspension, etc,. I was wondering cant I just purchase a later model full size blazer or even a 67-72 full size and just use the old frame and keep my 87's body. I would like to slam it on bags and put 22's on it but im not a mechanic. So i need a technique that would be more simple than so much fabrication.

How about even a chevy shortbed pickup? Would it bolt up with some simple fabrication. Belive me I now that when it comes to fabbing on any project its never simple, but this is not my first project that I would need someone else to do all the work.
