    [updated:LAST EDITED ON Feb-01-05 AT 10:03 PM (CST)]Not certain by how much, but i know the Blazer is a shorter WB than a pickup. I believe 106" or 108" in that area. I've seen it done with a '65 pick up, on a blazer frame. There was no hiding the difference.

    The '63-'72 short trucks sat on a 115" WB. Try to find a 4x4 frame from one of those. 1/2" off center in each wheel housing wouldnt be noticeable.
