Great question. In my opinion body mounts are far easier than subbing the frame. The frame will tuck under the cab with minimal effort. 4 wheel disk brakes, 4 link coil over posi, wider more stabilized frame that is thicker, better engineered and 4.5 inches thick instead of 6-7, so you can suck it down without hindering ride. Driveline is set with shaft, pinion angle, 5 lug, etc.. Goto parts store and gets parts without dealing with "well the rear end is this, front brakes that, etc. Now it doesn't go without issues like a wider, bigger radiator, wider front of axle and rear of axle frame. This is really not as far out of the box as one might think. Check out this link.
