Re: Sqaure body swap onto 88+ frame?

I am still around for sure! I am currently building a 88 Crew Cab, I am in the process of convertering it to 4x4 and putting a 6.5 TD in it with 5 Speed trans.

I had always planned on swapping it over to the spare 01 frame I had. I still have the frame, as well as a 2wd 2006 ext cab short bed frame.

The real reason why I didn't go for that type of frame swap is mostly bc I found a donor 4x4 crew cab with dana 60 under it. It made the choice of the swap a lot easier.

I haven't done the swap but I can give you advice on my knowledge. I do plan to go through with a crew cab square body on a 99+ frame one day for sure!
