A 77 4x4 frame under a 71 body

Hey guys, I need some info and there's no better bunch to ask than you! I am looking to convert to 4x4. I've got a 71 c10 short box 2wd. I found a 77 rolling 4x4 short box frame and am wondering how much work it will take to put that under my 71 body. Any info is appreciated. thank you in advance.

Go down to the 4x4 forum and look up Mudder. He's just the one to talk to as he did this very thing.
