MS 4x4 1ton Frame - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

'87 Chevy military 4x4 1 ton frame.

I'm taking the front & rearend out soon. Already got hydro boost & other parts too and hate to just junk what's left...
As I understand it, 1 ton frame rails are taller & stouter than 3/4 tons so would be a good upgrade especially for offroad or towing or if wanting to convert a 2wd to 4wd.
Have a clear title for it too!

We have a tractor & will help you load it as it will not be rolling at that point
$200

Are taking the springs too?

Probably not...The axels are going under my Blazer and I want 4" lift springs. So had thought about doing the spring conversion & using those longer (?52" or 56"?) off this truck to get away from paying so much $ for new front lift springs. But they're so heavy duty = stiff. I'm leaning now more to just saving up the $ & getting a Skyjacker kit.

Not saying I wouldn't, just not sure how that would work with a truck that won't be rolling. But if you were to send somebody with the $ & a trailer we'd put it on there for them!

BIGCHEVYMAN · 11-18-2010, 08:37 PM

dabels23 · 11-29-2010, 08:58 AM

Did you ever decide if you are going to use the springs?

Yeah I'm using them.

Do you happen to have the support rods and hardware from the aluminum flywheel cover up to the motor mounts?

Mine are missing from my CUCV.
