S10 Frame Swap w/ AD and LS motor

[tlorber]

I haven't yet determined whether I need to reposition the fenders relative the the wheels. The measurements I've taken from the centerline of the wheels to the rear of the bed are within 1/2" of eachother for the S10 and the '54 bedsides. I will be sectioning the bedsides in front of the wheels, and I'm hoping I don't need to lengthen or shorten the bedsides behind the fenders in order for them to be centered.

On what are you basing your measurements then? Sorry, I'm just curious, and trying to understand what you're basing your shortening measurements and box placement on. My shortening was based on where I wanted the wheels to end up within the fenders. Very easy.
