SWB frame questions....... - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Thought I was being slick, bought 2 SWB 4X4 trucks with wasted frames but other wise in good shape. Gathered 4 so far 2 wheel SWB frames, coil springs.
Whoops, was going to rob all the brackets etc off the 4X4 frames and drill and rerivet to the 2 wheel frames.
Question is, it looks like the coil spring frames are kicked out for the coils in the rear. Can I still mount all the brackets etc on the coil and make it a SWB 4X4 frame.
One of the 4X4 is a 67 swb and I want to restore that one, I have 2 67(no dimple) SWB coil frames.
Where the heck would I find a great 67 leaf rear, 2 or 4 wheel drve frame?
I hope this makes sense.
Thanks,
Steve
