SCAB frame interchange question
Truck is a 2004 SCAB 5.4l 3v 4x4 with a 145in wb (6.5in bed)
I need to do some frame repairs (rust) and would like to get a rear clip... problem is there are no same model year trucks at the local yard.. I can choose between a few 2001-2003s, a few 2006-2008.
Would I be good to go as long as I have the same wheelbase? Having a frame shipped in is just to expensive considering I can really just patch the hole.... but since I'm taking the bed off a new rear clip would also solve any future problems.
Any ideas? Anyone in the North East have a donor frame cheap?
Also, do inner rocker panels exist anymore??? Can find outer panels all day long.
