68 on a 73 up frame? - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

I thought I had read a post talking about using a 73-87 frame under a 67-72 truck awhile back. Did a search and checked the FAQs but nothing. Anyone have any info on doing this. I just picked up a 77 camper special with 454, turbo 400, 14 bolt, big sway bars. I would like to upgrade my 68 C20 either doing a frame swap or just front and rear suspension swap. Frame widths must be the same as the front suspension crossmember will swap so I was thinking just use the 68 cab mount brackets on the 77 frame. Anyone?
