73-87 Chevy _ GMC Trucks > 4 Wheel Drives

Transferring a 73 C body onto an 80 K frame

<< < (2/2)

Has anyone converted a 2 wheel drive to 4 wheel drive.  I have a 73 gmc 2 wheel drive long bed and just bought a 80 k10 longbed  4x4. I want to swap the 73 body on to the 80 frame....

Irish_Alley:
body swap will be the easiest/best option. the one thing you have to worry about is cutting a hole in the floorboard to make room for the transfer case shifter and either swapping center humps to the transfercase or install a 3" body lift

Thanks...

In some years (like my '75) the 4WD hump in the floor is a separate bolt-in piece, but I think that at some point they just modified the cab floor itself to clear the transfer case. You can probably cut a hole in the floor of the '80 and just transfer the hump section over from the 4WD truck.
