When considering a frame swap what all should I be looking for? I've got the wheelbase down and the width of the frame seems to be the same as well. Thinking about using a 90's circa ram I'm hoping to find a 93 for the full fuel injection but older could work too. Let me know guys I live playing on stuff like this but this will be by far the biggest project i will have done

 

You might reread your post and translate and elaborate. It don' make no sense and we don't unnerstan' whatcher wanting.

Mostly, if you want to do a frame swap, it should be for the same wheelbase and drive (2wd or 4wd are different.) A Ram frame wouldn't work as it was a full size truck and the Dakota wasn't.

 

I know it's not going to directly fit and I will have to modify things but I'm going for the solid axle and the easy lift so full size truck it is. I know it's been done with a Chevy frame before

 

And all I was wondering if there was some thing else to consider

 

mostly body mounts and the fuel filler and the bumpers

 

Fuel filler is a good one! Forgot about that thanks!

 

on ALL bolts on the bottom, exhaust bolts, and mostly break tubing fittings, use anti-seize compound. after 70,000 miles you will e glade you did. all so do not use plated bolts on the exhaust system. the plating will come off and jam the threads. and DO use the same size bolts that the factory did on the exhaust bolts. a smaller bolt WILL come loose.

 

Thanks I had no idea
