Body lift question, 67?

OK, this is probably a dumb question but I'm looking to do a 1in body lift on my truck, it's a 67' 4wd long bed. I see the part #'s for the urethane body bushings are the same for 67-72 but the body lift kits show a range of 69-72. Is there something I should know here? Can I purchase a 1in body lift and slap it on?

iirc I believe the 67' used a different coresupport bushing then the later models.

Re: Body lift question, 67?

When I was in to four wheeling jeeps the common practice for a 1inch lift was to use hockey pucks as a spacer. I never did this but thought long and hard about it.
