I'm looking at cutting the frame of a 1500 and grafting a 2500 to the front. Looking at where the front frame section meets the main chassis under the cab it looks like it could be welded back together.
I want to run 8 lugs on my 95 K1500, I have a 14FF 3.5" wide drum rear w/ 3.42's and a set of 3.42's for a 9.25 IFS, I dont want much if any lift, and I want it smooth riding. I also have a 96 K2500 parts truck that I could chop up. My 95 is pretty rusted in the front anyways (atleast in the places not coated with oil lol)
I didn't think of that, I figured it was all the same grade steel. I also figured it would be no different than shortening frames for a short bed.
Also there are people that bend their frame horns and graft a new front section on, that is probably a 2500 to 2500 graft.
What about the guys that build low riders with cut and grafted frames?
I won't be using 1500 t bars, I already have 3500 bars on the 1500. Like you said, it's not hard to make it ride solid like a truck but smooth enough to not knock your teeth out.
Is there anyway to find out if the same grade steels were used?
