Will a 67-72 C-10 frame work for a Blazer?
I have a 72 K5 2wd, and my buddy has a C10 shortbed frame thats Z'd and notched for grabs. Will it work for my K5?

I believe the C10 has a longer wheel base and body mounts are a lot different

The body mounts are the same frome the cab forward, but the bed portion is different. If you have basic fabrication skills then moving the mounts wont be hard at all.

no, the shortbed truck frame is 6" longer.
You could cut 6" out of the frame just before the forward-most spring hangar for the rear axle. |
