GMT800 Reg Cab 5'8" box conversion
Hey guys new to the forum just wanted to share my project with you guys. It's a 00 Silverado started life as a long box. I shortened the wheelbase and put a crewcab 5'8" box on it. There's a lot of ways to do it but I chose to just move the rear wheels forward and cut the remainder of the frame off mainly because cutting the weld and a section off the front frame wasn't going to work for me. The truck has a wheelbase of 108" according to google that's the same as a RCSB s10 just for a size comparason ha .I still need to get a driveline, flare and connect my brake line, install a fuel tank not sure on what to run yet, and fully weld a few things. A few plans I got for it are swapping an lq9 I originally got for my crew cab but decided to swap it into this instead. Probably will just run a cam "package" in it for now maybe way later down the road ls3 heads and intake.
I tried to attach some photos not sure if they worked. If you wanna see in more detail I posted a few vids of it on YouTube
