1963-72 Chevy & GMC Truck Longbed to Shortbed Conversion

This video installation guide is intended to be used with Brothers 1963-1972 Longbed to Shortbed Conversion Kit.

The Brothers Longbed to Shortbed kit takes all the confusion out of this conversion and will provide you with all the necessary provisions to complete this popular conversion in a clear step-by-step process.

The Brothers kit includes:

• Laser-cut steel template with hole locations and steps clearly marked
• High strength steel inner “C” channel reinforcement brace
• New shortbed front-to-rear brake line
• New shortbed parking brake cables
• All necessary hardware to install the kit
• Highly detailed instructions

With the conversion kit, you will have everything needed to shorten your long bed frame with basic hand tools in your own garage. The kit does require welding to finish the conversion but with our bolt-in steel inner braces, you will be able to safely transport the vehicle to a certified welder if needed. The driveshaft will also have to be shortened before re-installation.
