67 4x4 swb frame question - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

**6t727t2** · 10-13-2007, 08:44 AM

Is there any differance between a '67 4x4 swb frame and 68-72 4x4 swb frames? I have a chance to get a '67 but would want to use all '72 parts, inc. body. Thanks

P/S box dimple in frame?

The frame around the steering box is different as Tim said.Other then that it's just the front spring hangers,and springs,and rear spring hangers and springs that are different.That's why there aren't as many lift kits for pre '69 frames.It wouldn't matter if you used all that stuff from a 69-72 though.

Springs are diffrent front for the the 67-68 2 1/2 wide for the 69 to 72 3in wide
rear springs on the 67-68 are 3in wide 69 to 72 are 2 1/2 in wide.
