You not to sure if it was 2001 but thats what the guy who sold it to us said it was.......we used the original disk brakes from the truck. We had to grind and reweld the brake mounting plate flanges and move them closer to the edge of the axle tubes because this was a drum setup before. The overall width of the rear end was actually 3"s shorter but still fit on the leaf springs we will have to order deep dish wheels to fit appropriately on the truck but thats the look he was going for anyways

I have done the swap before. I just thought it would be cool to see how you guys did it along with the rest of your build.
I like the fact that your doing the 4x4 frame with AWD swap!!! Chevy should have offer that.
