Frame sizes?
Are the frames on 3/4 ton 2x4 the same as the 4x4? I know there will be an additional cross member for the x-fer case, but are the frames generally the same?
What about 1/2 ton vs. 3/4? I had a '72 K 20 in high school (25 yrs ago, Yikes!) and want to put something together one of these days.... |

Re: Frame sizes?
Any info out there on the 67-72 frames?
K-20's in the North East in good shape are hard to come by. I was thinking on a C-20, like one of the camper specials and doing a conversion. I know it'll still be a C according to the vin, but I don't really care. Just something that isn't riddled with cancer. |

Re: Frame sizes?
Frames for 2wd are different than 4x4. 2wd frames (coils and leafs) have a kick-out at the rear wheels whereas the 4x4's don't; they are straight front to rear.
