I have a pretty good idea how a Chevy 1/2-ton frame is different from a
Chevy 3/4-ton frame. I know at least a little about the differences between
early and late frames. And I've been told how a GMC is different than a
Chevy.
GMC made 1/2-ton long bed trucks. Does anyone know how those frames compare
to the others? Is the design more like the 3/4-ton or the 1/2-ton?
I don't have one, I'm just curious....

all
the pertinent information,and they sent me the wrong shocks,and had to
exchange them.....a short bed uses 22 inch long shock extended wile the long
bed
needs a 24 inch length .you need a threaded post on top and an eye on the
