Zero rates could be used in the rear to adjust wheelbase and mounts could be put on in the appropriate places.

But that truck frame is going to be WAY too long wheelbase wise at 143.5". The 116" Tahoe wheelbase is perfect for a shortbed 67-7 which stock wheelbase is 115".
Good point. I am going to do a short bed, so ill have to cut the frame. Or is there really much more to it than that. Simple cut, weld and support plus new driveline should be no biggie.
