Still not sure what im doing wether its body swap on to a donor chassis or axle swap from the donor truck. Either way i am purchasing a 79 k30 roller this weekend. Solid chassis and axles. Looks to be 14 bolt rear and the guy said it was a dana 60 front but looks like the dana 44. Either way. Should be a good parts truck and a good start.

dana 60 front has 4 bolts or studs/nuts were a ball joint would be on a dana 44 or corp 10 bolt. also has 2 bolts on the pumkin side were a u-bolt would be on the dana 44 or corp 10 bolt.
super fast way to spot a true k30 frame is no outside rear shocks to the frame . k30 frames have inner shocks on the rear to clear the springs being closer to the frame .
