what to do ?

hi all,

I am looking for opinons. I have a 84 that has fuel injected engine
auto tranny, disc brakes, dual tanks and four wheel drive.

So do I swap all of these componets onto my 69 gmc frame.
or do I swap just the bodies? oh my 69 is 4wheel drive
currently no engine, and drum brakes all around.

I figure that the 84 frame is ~3 inch's longer than the 69.

Thanks for you thoughts.


Mike

I remember someone asking about this swap a few months ago, I believe they said its a PITA to make it happen. All the cab mounts, bed perches core support mounts have to be rewelded and there was somethign about the width of the frame too?
