Exclamation Regular cab to crew cab frame mods...

OK fellas. Small issue with project Lucia now and I need some help. I was supposed to be swapping my CCSB 2wd frame to a board member for his CCLB 4x4 frame. Well, long story short his number is no longer any good, cant get in touch with him, and he hasnt been on here since June? Well my cab is off the chassis and I need a 4x4 chassis. I would love to trade someone my CCSB 2x4 chassis for a 4x4 chassis. If that doesnt work I need to know if I can splice a section into my regular cab 1 ton 4x4 chassis to make it a crew cab chassis. PLEASE HELP!

A good crossthread is better than Loctite any day.

Life is not about what you have, but who you have to share it with.

Re: Regular cab to crew cab frame mods...

I would think that it would be fairly simple to do. If I was in your situation I would probably Find a 4x frame and put the front section on the CCSB frame in between the cab mounts.You would end up with a frame with two joints instead of three Are the rear sections the same? Jay

I have a 1 ton regular cab longbed 4x4 chassis already. Thats why i was asking about lengthening it to a crew cab frame.
