Has anyone ever heard or done a swap using this frame. I thought I read someone had done this swap on here before? Thanks! | | | | | Joined: Sep 2005 Posts: 99 Wrench Fetcher | | Wrench Fetcher Joined: Sep 2005 Posts: 99 | you wouldn't be meaning an S10 would you. I've seen a couple of threads on that kind of swap. | | | | | Joined: May 2007 Posts: 9 Junior Member | | Junior Member Joined: May 2007 Posts: 9 | Hey revedup I have a 76 c-10 I am thinking about cutting the front suspension from for my 55 2nd series. I have found where one guy did this swap at www.webrodder.com/article.php. If you find any more info let me know I will probably start getting the 76 to the shop this weekend for the get down measuring to see how well the front ends will match up. Thanks for any info 552ndser | | | | | Joined: Nov 2005 Posts: 144 Shop Shark | | Shop Shark Joined: Nov 2005 Posts: 144 | Check out these two links: 1. C-10 frame swap under a TF 2. Chevy truck frame dimensions and specs I would like to do this swap someday. I used to have a 57 that had a 72 GM front clip welded onto it. It's another option if you can find a 72 frame to cut up. | | | | | Joined: Nov 2005 Posts: 144 Shop Shark | | Shop Shark Joined: Nov 2005 Posts: 144 | Here's a link to the webrodder article. It describes a fairly complex job of grafting a C-10 IFS onto a TF. I would rather clip the front end or replace the frame before I do this. It seems like a lot of work to me. | | | | | Joined: May 2007 Posts: 9 Junior Member | | Junior Member Joined: May 2007 Posts: 9 | Thank you Ezekiel I didn't get that one right. I thought that looked pretty extensive. But that is the only one I have found so far on the web. | | |
