Frame Swap

Hi, I am new to this site.

My family and I went to a local smalltown parade/fair and well we came home with a 65 long box fleetside .

We have debated what to do with it and have decided to convert to 4x4. From what I have been reading on the web it states that using a doner truck from the years 73-87 that is already 4x4 is a good route.

I have seen several places suggesting this swap however have not seen any write ups on the possible issues I may run into. I have the doner truck already and will be cutting the body off this weekend hopefully.

Has anyone done this swap? If so anything i need to watch for?

I saw the thread on 65 3/4 ton 4x4 buildup however it looks like he is using a 69 frame.

Thanks in advance.
