J10 vs J20

03-29-2019, 11:06 AM

A friend called me today about a J20 he found. The truck was in a front end wreck that kinked the frame. He has found a J10 donor with a good frame.

Now I know the axles and springs are different between the two, but are the frames the same or different?

Year for year, frames should be the same.

The J20 will be a long bed, long wheelbase truck. The J10 could be LWB or SWB.

High quality junk here: intro thread and slow build thread

Did you know? Willys is just Willis spelled differently, but pronounced the same. Neither Willy nor his apostrophe are involved.
