swap?
« on: October 25, 2008, 11:00:35 pm »
I have a 85 gmc 1/2 ton 4x4good shape I just purchased a 75 chevy 3/4 ton 4x4 good 350 motor and 350 tranny.  the 75 has bad rust and body isn't in the best shape.  Can I take the running gear and 3/4 springs and put them on the 85 gmc?

Easy no maybe for some that has a well equipped shop.On a scale of 1 to 10 I'd rate this at a 6

14 bolt FF/big bearing Dana 44 4.56 gears

92' GMC C-1500 454/4L80E/14 bolt
