are you sure that 99 burb is not a 4wd? i know they still make 2wd burbs (my preference) but most of the trucks came with 4wd by the late 90's. i would just change over the chassis rather than trying to hack up a totally different frame to fit. its easier to drill a few mounting holes and not have to worry about body fitment. the 67-72 2wd's have a superb suspension (just need a sway bar) but the 99 burb will have front disc brakes.....i'd swap those parts!
