What door panels are you using in the truck? They look different than the ones I have in my trucks.

 

I can get a crewcab but im wondering if it would be possible and or easier too just take my cab off lengthen my frame and set the crewcab in place would the body lines match up?

it would be easier to convert the crew 4x4 if its not and then drop your cummins into it, the crews have large frames

 

if you do just stretch the frame you have to notch the floor because of the way the frame is made as stated earlier. nice ride.

 

I love a perfecly straight rust free multi colored truck, Shoot some clear on her whack some stack off and call er good

BTW awsome avatar

 

nice crew, i like the stack, b better if it was duals and mitter cut but still looks good

Heath, Easier to swap engines. I did not have to make any body or frame mods to get the engine and drive train in. It was just a matter of pulling one out and putting it back in. I did make the wiring easier by using the '91 dash and cab wiring. The only wiring I had to adjust was the harness to the tail lights.

The stack is may get shorted, not sure yet. But with it that tall, it does ring in the cab.

Any way thanks for the comments. And if anyone has a question I will be glad to answer.
