Thank You again..

The GMC has leaf springs, but most Chev were trailing arm coil springs. These are very different.  Dean

Maybe I missed something here  but he did say frame not chassis all 1/2 ton short bed frames were made frum the same stamping. Thats why if you look at your frame there will be a number of holes not being used. They are for differant options between GMC & Chevy

The GMC and Chevy frames are the same. Chevy came standard with coil springs with optional leaf. Where as the GMC came standard with Leaf with optional coil springs
