k30 builds
Just wondering if anyone has done this seems like a lot of guys want to and even start but I haven't seen a build yet the napcos are so cool seems like a lot of guys would like this I'm surprised someone hasn't figured this out and cashed in maybe I'm just not looking in the right place
some have talked about converting a 77/87 k30 and either swapping body's or swapping drive train each way has good and bad issues I'm just a lot of transfer case issues and clearance issues any help or more info on this topic please and thanks

How are you setting yours up are you using the later 77-87 k30 frame or using k20 front suspension seems you have a lot of trucks in your profile can you put up some pics

Re: k30 builds
On my 1 ton crew cab build, I am taking a cab& chassis c30 frame, which is the heaviest and thickest frame you could get and am putting all the k10-k20 brackets and members off of and running a Dana 60 front and the rear axle from a Duramax 3/4 ton, as I am swapping in my duramax.

Re: k30 builds
I'm almost finished with my one ton upgrade. It goes in for exhaust in two days!
