Is there a complete aftermarket frame that is bolt in ready for the 82-91 K 5?

Nope. Find a clean doner with a straight clean frame. Run it.
Or bust out the welder. 2x4 and 2x6 tube
That was a fantastic bit of work right there.
Have those, not what I want.
Yes I could but would like to buy this done by someone else, with stock positioned body mounts and other mods applied so I know that I can trust the welding.
This is exactly the information I was looking for if he will do it. Anymore out there?

Well I did find this company that can make me one.

Good find. I'm not sure where else to find a back-half frame for $283. That's more competitive than I had expected.
Did you get an answer back from Kert yet?
How much do they want? I have been looking into boxing my frame, something already done would be easier, assuming all the holes are there, body mounts, etc.
Not yet I haven't asked him, I am still studying on exactly what I want.
That is actually a great option to what would need to be done. Wouldn't be that bad to bolt in the body mounts needed.

As someones whos done this its the little stuff that gets you, especially if you want all your factory components to work/function properly and not re-engineer and reposition everything.
Stormis what type construction did you go with on your frame you built?

I did a box tube construction but didn't do one side at a time like kert. I built mine middle out in sections. There's loads of pictures in my old trooper/s10 build.
