If you want to go 4x4 it should fit pretty well on the 77 K 10 chassis outside of the "normal" frame swap issues. There are a couple of them in this area on K 20 chassis that have been running around for years. If you are going 4x4 I'd leave the clearance lights on top of the cab and run the big truck bumper. Give it that serious get er done look.

THAT'S the look I'm lookin' for ! BTW, both grilles look the same, but only one hood is ribbed tho. Maybe some changes ... or repairs over the years ?

That would be good, I like bigger tires. Would be cool to run the original 20's with my 411 rears. Weld new 6 lug centers in.

Because I have the K10 and want to end up with a 4WD "working" truck.
Thanks.
Might go look at it over the weekend.
Thanks again guys.
