ECSB 4x4 1st Gen idea

[diesel_importer]

I'm thinking about building an extended cab short bed 4x4 first gen. I've only seen 1 or 2 ecsb cummins swaps and they were 2wd. I have a nice '92 that was rolled and I've found a body I could stick on it. What do y'all think?

Go for it.

Go for it.

Yep.

From what I've found on the interweb, it looks like an ecsb wheel base is 2" longer than a scLb. Shouldn't be too hard to fix that. Both trucks are '92 also!

No reason not to. Will be different.

I don't think the white one is a 92. I looks like it has the pre 91 front end on it. Or some body may have switched it out. Should be a pretty sweet swap though. There are a couple of them running around my parts. One is a custom that wester hauler did back in the day

There was in my area about 8 months ago guy wanted 16 grand and wasn't even done right! I would go for it the one I seen was awesome!

I talked to a guy a few years back who had completed this swap. If I remember correctly he said he just moved the rear axle back a couple inches. Beyond that he made it sound like it was pretty simple.

do it! saw a 4x4 on ebay for sale in 08'......shoulda bought the thing! truck was very nice.

That white truck is a early 91 at the newest since it still has the old grille. I would do it but i would probably just swap everything over yo the White trucks frame.

Do it! I've seen a couple in mags or online, they look amazing

Well the ecsb truck sold, so now I'm looking for another parts truck.

Found another donor.

Finally got the club cab to my shop, and started removing interior in wrecked truck.

 

[Dazed&Confused]

Mind me asking what that ext. Cab cost you? Its getting harder to find them.

 

[diesel_importer]

One of those trade deals. Guy owns wrecker company- gave him 2 old civic hatchbacks w/o titles and $400. He does all the hauling.

Finally got back on this project. Got both cabs off, wiring and dash swapped. Beds off, short bed on 3/4 ton frame. Just need to relocated 2 cab mounts and install frame
