Re: 51 Chevy on a Ford Explorer Subframe - Time for a Different Frame Swap!

@Tempest67 - You are correct, the back frame opening of the cab will be opened 2" on each side to accomodate the additional frame width back there.

@Dsraven - in the past, when I did the S10 swap, I raised the box, lowered the rear fenders and made new filler panels between the box sides and running boards. They didn't like out of place at all and the height of the cab above the box in the back looked more proportional.
