Since the track width is so narrow on the older trucks, most people use the S10 series truck chassis for this conversion. It keeps the tires inside the fenders where they belong,

There is a fella in my home town that has done this exact thing. Put it on a fullsize 73-87 frame,track width is a little wide, but he is running big tires. He said all he did was mount the 46 body mounts to the latter frame.
