I have 4" exhaust, and just had to dimple it some around the edge of the transfer case so it didn't rattle.
I’m sure people have tried this before...the dodge crossmember appears to be removable, I’m gonna see how it fits in the chevy frame I guess. I looked at the donor truck today, I would have bought it but the banks were closed for Veterans Day.
Some things I noticed...
The trans and transfer case is very long, should give a pretty good front driveshaft angle.
The dodge radiator seems to be similar size to the chevy truck one and the inter cooler in front of it looks like it won’t be hard to mount in the chevy nose.
