frame question
Are the 72 suburban and the truck frames the same? Could you bolt a 72 lwb truck onto a 72 suburban frame?

Re: frame question
I dont think there exactly the same, but they can be adapted to fit. A buddy of mine put a 70' pickup body on a 71' burb frame, I remember that the body mounts had to be transfered over from the pickup frame. There was also something about the bumper mounts that was different and had to be fabricated.

Re: frame question
Is the wheel base the same? Or is the only difference the body mounts?
