I didn't realize the frames differed that much between 4x4 and 2WD trucks, and do you still have your 97 ECLB?

Currently I do, but I have an offer in hand and it will probably be gone by the end of the weekend.

sure you can

 

[JScott23]

can what? SAS It? haha come over and help me then lol we'll start tommorow.

 

[BowtieBrody]

Maybe something on coils maybe? Are the 3/4 ton 2WDs like the 1/2 tons suspension wise with the springs? I've never paid much attention,

 

[JScott23]

You can put coil spacers but they mess up the alignment and really give it trouble getting aligned good again. Iv'e found its best to leave it alone. I'm hoping the 350 weighs a lot less than the 6.5 and allows it to give me the extra 1/2" to 1" i need. I tried trimming the fender, might have to do more trimming or get new wheels which would suck.

you can solid axle anything......

The frame really isn't much different they bend slightly up at the front but an hour a welder and a plasma problem solved

 

[JScott23]

hahah yeah, I know. I'd still have a to find a 94+ transmission and transfer case. I always remember a guy saying, if you have a welder anything is possible. lol


Honestly, I have plans to find a 3/4 or 1 ton 4x4 in the next year or two. ether a regular cab long bed or an extended cab short bed. This truck is a completely rust free truck in great condition, 4x4 would probably never get used on it. Definitely will not see salt.
