I want to frame swap myself, and admittedly I haven't scoured online for frames, but if the amount of ECSB 8 lug 2500s on the road are any indication of what lies in the junkyard them's slim pickins.
There aren't a whole lot running around here either so sourcing one is the big part but if you can get one it's the way to fly. The 2500 frames are taller so the upper control arm mounts are in a different location in relation to the lowers. If you can get static settings correct you could still have issues. The vehicle might drive straight down the road but these types of geometry issues reveal themselves under different driving conditions. Such as a loaded vehicle on a long left sweeper, you hit a pot hole and the vehicle changes lanes all by itself. if you've never experience a situation like this with a geometry related issue it's can be an ass puckered up pulling the upholstery off the seat kind of moment. Camber gain can affect toe settings and add to bumpsteer so there's a lot more to it then just getting the stuff bolted on and the static alignment setting correct.
