if the truck is an 80's call Avalanche Engineering, they sell a complete tube crossmember for about 400 bucks, its stronger and helps tie the front of the truck together better, also look at a steering box brace for the truck cause that cummins is heavy and thats alot of weight on the nose and it may rip the box out of the frame......another thing is that there is a factory cummins to chevy tranny adapter out of the bread trucks, you just got to find one.....

Chevy to Cummins
Hi, i have a 1996 chevy 1500 4x4, i was wanting to put a 3.9 or 5.9 cummins engine in it. Do you know how big of a deal it is to rewire the engine to hook up to the gages, computers, tranny, etc?

Do you really wanna easy, and cheaper way of doing your swap?
Move your body over to the other frame. Or, cut the frame in half, and re-weld it to your truck. maybe you have $8000 to do the yank, and swap way. Don't get angry with me; I don't set the prices!!! Last edited by Prankster; 04-19-2009 at 07:35 PM..

I did mine all with a 120v mig welder. Just beveled EVERY edge for the welds and got 100% penetration. If you take your time prepping for the welds it can be done.
The premade crossmember is pretty trick I'd check that out.
