Since you are doing a 2wd to 4wd conversion, it wouldn't hurt to keep it. If nothing else, just to use for reference on the front frame section. You should be able to use the ends of the frame to box yours.

but the truck i'm swaping the 60 into is a 4x4 allready. Got all the wiring out of the cab so far. on that is a 5speed truck cab wiring the same as a auto. I know i can't use the computer but i can sell it.It came with 2 full tank's of fuel so that and the tank's an slector valve.A guy's coming sat to get some body stuff so not that far to go to haul it off

Thank's John

Exactly.. The old frame can come in handy for reference or even mock up as you go!

I don't know what or who I was thinking about LOL! I thought it was you doing a 2wd to 4wd. I don't see any need in keeping the frame then.
