wave Have a question that I hope some of you with more wrench turning can answer for me . I need to re-due the kingpins frown on TOTO a GMC 1 1/2 ton . Being a somewhat of a lazy cuss laalaa at times , can I swap a good front axle assembly off of a Chevy 1 1/2 ton onto a GMC without any problems/modifications headscratch? I know that GMC did things differently than Chevy on some of it's mechanicals so one needs to be careful about what you swap . Thanks thumbs_up ED H

im not 100% positive, but i believe that i read that the rims on the GMC's are lug centered, and the chevys are hub centered.. at lest for some years? not sure might want to look in to that

GMC and Chev both used hub piloted wheels and they will interchange. GMC also used stud piloted wheels. I'm not sure if Chev did. However, if you find a Chev with hub piloted wheels, the wheels will interchange with your GMC. I can't really tell from the pictures of your 303 what kind of wheels they are.
