The Stovebolt Site Forums The Parking Lot '60-'66 Trucks 61 4x4 Frame Swap

im putting a 61 k 10 on a 85 chev 1 ton frame right now so far it has been real straight forward the two frames are both 34 in wide the 85 does not have body mounts on the out side of the frame in back so no cutting the old ones off there just had to cut the mid mounts off.first i put the rear body mounts as low as i could with leaving a two in gap between body and frame then to make the cab level i cut off the 61 mounts and fabricated mid mounts with a 4 in lift and put those on the 85 frame so far it has come together looking good i think this would be a lot harder to make look right on a 2whl drive but 4wh drive it looks good also its a dually flat bed so i dont have to worry about rear wheels lining up ill try to post some picks for you.
