Chevy / GMC C/K Frame Dimensions
Hopefully,
these 1973 - 1980 Chevy / GMC pickup truck frame dimensions will help those of you that have been requesting this info, as well as
others. Frame dimensions are helpful, and a
necessity when considering possible custom body swaps. Also handy for dump beds, and tilt noses.
The oval shaped holes in the chassis are gauge holes. Pins can be inserted, and
then measurements can be taken from these pins to verify that a frame is not
bent or twisted.

These diagrams are out of a 1977 GM Service manual, I know it covers 1973 - 1980, and may be the same up to 1987. I do not have ANY OTHER specs for any other years. I get about 50 e mails a year asking for them. Sorry I can't help.

(C= 2wd pickups, cab n' chassis, and Blazer / Suburban, K= 4wd pickups, cab n' chassis, and Blazer / Suburban, and the P model line is Chevy Vans. GM considers anything 1 ton or under to be a "Light Duty" vehicle.
As I said above, all of these specs came from a factory service manual, get one and you will not be disappointed!
