tysouthwick Posted August 25, 2010 Report Posted August 25, 2010 My question is would a mid 80s dodge 10 passenger van chasis be a suitable frame for a 49 crew cab conversion? Quote
Clinton_Reeser Posted August 26, 2010 Report Posted August 26, 2010 I bought one a few years back and it had a uni-body construction. I was going to use it for the front clip under my 50 but have since decided to go back original. So I would probably make sure it has a full frame and not just the front clip. Quote
NiftyFifty Posted August 26, 2010 Report Posted August 26, 2010 Would that frame be really any longer anyway? Maybe a frame from a 1ton chassis with the 9ft box would work better, I imagine with a original "short box" or a modified one it would work great and be more "original" Quote
buds truck Posted August 26, 2010 Report Posted August 26, 2010 you might measure out an early dodge dakota club cab/long box. It might just fit the bill. Quote
Guest dadsdream Posted August 27, 2010 Report Posted August 27, 2010 did dodge make a crew cab pilothouse? Quote
Allen I. Posted August 27, 2010 Report Posted August 27, 2010 There's a bit of a trick answer ion thatone. No for us in the US but our friends Down Under have some pics of interesting rides they had available to them. I do not have the pics and am working from a droid so searching is a bit of a pain ... especially at work Quote
