Nice, I'm using a J20 truck frame for my flatty build. If your's is similar the front half of the frame is fully boxed. should be pretty strong. And the rear springs might just be 54" like what came stock on the truck? Should be a good starting platform.

yeah rears are 54 and fronts are 47....just like chevys of the same era, already have lift srpings i had under my old j10 b4 i scrapped it, just need to re-locate the rear perches to be inline with the frame rail so the 14bolt will bolt right in

Should be able to get a few $$ for that set of axles, alot of people look for a narrow dana 44 front diff for sfa swaps.

Looks great. You just have a little trimming to do. It should wheel good that way and the drive line angle should be better too. Just need to work out the steering....

Are you going to move the rear too, or bob the back?
