Has anybody ever swapped a half ton body onto a 3500 frame?

Hi,

I had a wreck with my Duramax equipped 2013 3500 Express and can get an Express 2005 1500 really cheap. Does anybody know if the body mounting locations are the same?

Thanks!

  Well, before I bought new TPMS sensors I'd test the batteries, or the heck with it; just put new sensors in with KNOW GOOD BATTERIES, dont just trust batteries just because they are new to you.

  To make things simple, general rule of thumb is not to exceed 80% percent of manufacturer's stated max towing weight to avoid white knuckle driving and that is with a WDH.

  @EJS2015 about the cable to connect the front camera. Did you use Female to Male ? I think I saw someone using Female to Female. Im trying to confirm before buy the cable. Thank you

  Oh, I see what you're saying now. The *combined* weight of everything being more than 2x the weight. The way you worded it made it seem like you were talking about the trailer itself being more than 2x the truck. At the end of the day, it's a figure of speech. If you're hungry, could you really eat a 900lb horse?No. If you were mad at someone, is a sane, reasonable, logical person really going to kill the other person? No. Does anyone really not notice a big camper behind them or that notice being 0%? No, of course not.

  The weight of the truck is included in the weight that is being moved. A 9k trailer more than doubles the weight that the drivetrain and brakes need to move and stop (7k+9k)>14k. And yes changing lanes with a 36' sail certainly is different than an empty truck. I don't think my math or reading comprehension are problematic on this one
