Frame Interchange Ability
« on: January 18, 2011, 10:34:28 pm »
Can I use an 81 2wd truck frame and swap it into a 4wd frame fairly easily? Got a heck of a deal on an 81 2wd with 6 cyl and was wanting to make it into a 4wd. Have access to axles, tranny, and TC. Wondering if it would be better to change frames or just get all of the donor parts? Any help would be great.

Real trucks are built, not bought Build thread

Give me a long enough lever and a place to stand, and I shall move the earth or break this bolt...Whatever, just hold my beer!

Change frames, it is easier.
