Hello everyone, after lurking for several years I finally joined the forum! (thank you for adding me) I have a '95 GMC K1500 SCSB and the frame is rusted to the point of failure. I realize this topic has been beaten to death, but yet another frame compatibility question...
Can I use any 88-98 model year frame as long as it's a SCSB 1/2 ton? I found a very nice '89 rolling chassis, will there be any compatibility surprises? I don't know what drive train the donor has but mine is a 5.0L / 4L60E.
About six years ago I replaced the fuel tank and all brake/fuel lines. The frame was solid but rusty and I wish I had the foresight to clean & paint it. I've been a lifelong WI resident and can't believe how corrosive salt & brine have become in recent years! It's really a shame to see these trucks deteriorating so badly.
