Little light at the end of the tunnel now.

[@jacobthornock317]

It's looking pretty right.

[@380.motorsports]

Nice body swap. Mrs. Engineer was right!

[@marklowe330]

Grade five bolts are considered chassis bolts. That's really all you need. That's a heck of a project. Just finished my 5.3 4l60e swap into an 87 cherokee. Used some of your advice and recommend your channel to a lot of people looking for info.

Nice

If anybody could put a hellcat engine in a ecodiesel it’d be you bro. 👍

This just confirms my ideas. I want to swap a 08-13 Silverado body on a Duramax topkick frame. I figure I'm moving mounts. But I also had similar ideas to your rear mounts. I can swap my transmission in my 2500hd for the 3rd time (350k miles on the 6.0) or body swap a Kodiak/topkick (they usually rust out bad here) for a couple thousand more.

What you got is a f450 f5550 cab chassis commercial frame. they're 34 inch wide. Maybe you be better off with a pick up frame they"re 37" wide behind front wheels .Or maybe your building. rollback or something?

[@AlfonsLC]

Gonna be great.

[@Justwalkawaygarage]

Fucking awesome progress, man. Marv is a monster truck now.

[@20havenfun08]

Love your project.... thank you:)

[@TheDrivewayEngineer]

Thank you! 😊

[@billybyrd1375]

You said that was an 08 chassis in thr beginning but later said it was an 06?

[@TheDrivewayEngineer]

That's because I constantly forget. But it's an 06 chassis, 08-10 are different in the front

[@billybyrd1375]

@TheDrivewayEngineer I have an 08 short bed that I was going to pull the axles off of for a obs long bed that I wanted to shorten the frame on anyways. Now I'm pretty sure I'm gonna do this. Thanks for the info. I've never uploaded any content but my obs body is a 4 door so I'll try to video it and showcase any differences.

[@billybyrd1375]

I mounted my obs short bed on on 08 superduty frame and the frame mount bolts lined right up.

[@jacobnorth8642]

Built, not bought...

[@TheDrivewayEngineer]

Sometimes I feel like I should have bought 🤣

[@CleffersGarage]

i'm about to do this with my bronco. good to know that the front mounts are in the same spot.

[@scotthultin7769]

First 👍's up DWE thank you for sharing 🤗

[@TheDrivewayEngineer]

[@samuelmcgill-rl3lb]

JR ,looks good ,thumbs up to MRS engineer for the input . and i thought changing the dash ,and rebuilding the HVAC system on my 99 chevy 2500 crew cab was a pain in the ass .IT IS ,Lol keep up the good work ,happy trails .

[@TheDrivewayEngineer]

I sold my 2500 before I rebuilt the dash 😄 hats off to you sir!

[@TahoesNTurbos]

its coming along nicely!

[@adamsorell4851]

thats a cab chassis frame.maybe you be better off with a pickup frame?

[@TheDrivewayEngineer]

I have no need of a pick up frame. I'm well aware it's a cab and chassis, I mentioned it several times.
