**lolife99** · 10-21-2009, 07:52 PM

Are you putting a Jimmy tub on a 2wd shortbed frame?
I assume you know the wheelbase is different?

ClifBlazer · 10-22-2009, 02:48 AM

11'' shorter in between cab and wheel well not shore where to cut out figered I'd find out when tube and frame meet

do you think this bed is any good to any one?

OARNGESI · 10-22-2009, 04:26 AM

looking forward to seeing this you should be able to sell the bed try puting it up on craigslist

ClifBlazer · 10-23-2009, 04:00 AM

lolife have you done this frame cut or have you seen a thread that shows it

think I down loaded jimmy pic.

ClifBlazer · 10-23-2009, 04:23 AM

more pic. of jimmy have to reduce them to fit

**lolife99** · 10-23-2009, 06:06 AM

No, I haven't seen this done. All the body mounts will have to be moved on the new frame.
I think it would be easier to add 2wd front suspenion to the original blazer frame.
Many people have done this "conversion".

ClifBlazer · 10-23-2009, 03:40 PM

I haven't found a frame that some one doesn't want as much as a truck for

ClifBlazer · 10-24-2009, 04:53 AM

any body seen a p/s pump like this?

low'n slow · 10-24-2009, 06:10 PM

Good grief, how many mirrors did that blazer have?

And

**lolife99** · 10-25-2009, 09:27 AM

Don't cut the short wheelbase frame.
Find another 4x4 blazer frame to convert.
I wish I had something to trade for your stepside.
I have complete disc brake front crossmembers if you need one for your conversion.
Also trailing arms and crossmembers.

Do yourself a favor,... and find another blazer frame.

ClifBlazer · 10-25-2009, 08:15 PM

Thanks for input lolife you have good point swb frame is much better THan cutting down a lwb Besides the cab isnt so bad but the roof and drip rail are going to need work po did floors but didn't do kicks with the floors WHY do they do what they do? Your there and not do all thats needed done

ClifBlazer · 10-26-2009, 01:45 AM

ClifBlazer · 11-05-2009, 07:28 PM
