The Stovebolt Site Forums The Shop Area General Truck Talk 55.2-59 Frame Differences, 1/2 vs 3/4 ton

Hi All,

Does anyone know what the differences between a 55-59 Chevy or GMC frame, 1/2 vs 3/4 ton for the long wheelbase?

I have a 56 GMC 1/2 ton, 8 foot bed frame from a parts truck in decent shape and a 56 Chevy 3/4 ton project truck frame that some torch-happy person had their way with. I was think about swapping them out. Thanks
