Recently got a 1982 2wd K5 jimmy

It's apparently been hit in right side hard at some point before me.
Frame is junk since found a 83 4wd frame.
Current state of confusion.

And since we're into it this far. Planning on a 1-1-1/2 inch section of the crossmember some tube A arms and bags.
Rear bagged 2 link

Is it possible to move the crossmember forward much without getting into the steering components?

BTW I'm really thinking these p-19 pins do more damage than good on these trucks.
