One of my friends has A 54 with everything from a pickup that model under it,the K member with A frames and tie rods and suspension components looks like a good fit with a half inch steel plate for shims on the outside of each frame rail. The outside width is a little more than would be ideal,however it drives and rides good.
The steering box from the later pickup was also used and mounted in front, in same location as it was on the original truck frame I dont know how that location was determined ....good luck

It looked a little awkward with the wheels sticking out too far. I understand you can cut a section out of it & make it fit better. I like this swap better because you maintain the stock rideing heigth.
