Duramax in A surburban?
 
I I missing something? Sounds too easy.
I have a 2004 GMC HD2400 4x4 with a Duramax. I have a wrecked in the front end 1500 Chevy Surburban 2x4. I am going to simply cut the surburban body at the A post and under the seat same with the truck- weld them together hook up the taillights and windows-and figure out the rear A/c and go for it?
Understanding I need to shorten the wheelbase as mine is a LWB extended cab.
Anybody done this?

Thanks

Do it :c:

Check out the channel "DuraBurbInc" on youtube. They don't actually swap bodies and frames, they just swap engines. Thought it might interest you.

A swap such as that was featured in a DieselPower, or Diesel World magazine lately. Looked really clean, and not extremely difficult.

Those are nice.

I think welding the back on would be easier and I would not need to do any DMV / smog work. It would always be the truck.
