I'm sure that would be fine just adding some plates, and upgrading your motor mounts, the frame seems a little excessive, and you could box your own frame easier than swapping the two.

Don't get the Dana80 of you go offroading or anything unless you have like 38 inch tires dude. The transfer cases on those things are huge.
