88-98 Chevy GMC longed to short bed conversion, it's easier than you think!

Follow along as we do a long bed to short bed conversion on my 1991 GMC K1500 AWD truck! This is a budget build so it's ‪@amazon‬ parts and how too! #chevy #gmc #antiquetruck #oldtruck #classic #obschevy

Hopefully it helped

[@Tdillard29]

how did you do the shock mount ?

[@Wrenchingwithray]

The rear one I just moved forward, the front one I notched to fit

[@tngmanny6364]

Is the drive shaft the same size as a regular short bed? Or did you get a custom one?

[@Wrenchingwithray]

I used one from a 4wd Tahoe/Yukon but I believe the short bed drive shaft should work.

[@enriquecabrieles]

We’re did u buy them

[@Wrenchingwithray]

All the parts came from Amazon

[@Bearded_blatz]

How many inches exactly did you have to cut off the frame? And the rear leaf spring brackets, are they new stock ones?

[@Wrenchingwithray]

Was like 18 and an 1/8 I think, I used the factory rear spring hangers I just bead blasted and painted them

[@Bearded_blatz]

@Wrenchingwithray ok awesome! Thanks for letting me know! Definitely want to do this to mine... and where did you get the front bracket for the leaf springs ? You have a link? Thanks!
