Default TF2 LWB Frame Rails for Custom K10?

Hey guys

Been wanting to cut up my RC4WD Blazer body and make a long box K10 pickup out of it. Obviously it's not easy to change the wheelbase with a leaf sprung setup compared to a linked setup, but I had the idea of using the LWB frame fails as a potential solution. Are there any differences between the LWB TF2 and the regular wheelbase trucks as far as the rest of the chassis pieces?

Thanks in advance and sorry if this has been asked. I did a quick search and couldn't find much.

I have all 3 TF2 wheelbases. There is a few differences between each. But the difference with the long and Normal wheelbase mostly is there is a shaft bearing for the rear on the LWB. The body mounts are different the sliders are different.

As mentioned, there are mounts for the carrier bearing. For the most part, everything you are going to be needing to use is identical. The link kits will bolt up of you wanted to go that route in the future etc.
