If you try to use a 28-29 chassis for a 30-31 it is not advisable as the body, when properly shimmed, will set high above the frame.

If you have a 28-29 frame I would suggest you replace the front cross member with a 30-31 front cross member.

Ron, truth be known, its not that difficult and looks perfectly normal when its done on A pick up. I have been told by a reliable source that it is more difficult with a car body. I posted pictures of the one that I did above.
