Will a 67-72 c10 long bed frame bolt up to a 66 suburban body?

I dont think so at all. The 66 is 115" wheel base and the LWB is 127", the difference in frames from a pickup and a sub are the mounts and the rear part of the frame.

What is wrong with your frame on the 66?

Just keep your original frame. It is a whole lot easier to upgrade the suspension and brakes, if that what you are after, than all the mods to change frames. Plus it is always best to have the same VIN on the frame and body. No possible legal issues latter on.
