suspension swap?

I have located a 76 blazer chassis that has great drivetrain. I am thinking about putting it in my 67 4x4 burb.the main reasons that I intend to do this are for driveability and parts availability. what I am curious about is unforseen problems like changing man brakes to pwr brakes, and installing pwr steering. Are the springs interchangable?...what I plan to do is remove the blazer axles and put them the burb are the u-joints the same or willl I need crossover joints?? any help is greatly appreciated

Re: suspension swap?

I believe that most of the parts you mentioned are interchangeable except the springs. You will find them to be longer. I also believe the left front framehorn on your burb will need a conversion plate to mount the power steering gearbox. Good luck with your project!
