My 71 Custom Camper - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Well after looking, the VIN on the truck, and the VIN on the SPID don't match. Is there a number in the vin that will tell you the original motor size? I don't think the truck has been painted, the bed is suspect though, as there is some reddish color showing here and there where the paint is worn.

Next question-I want to lower this thing, I lower everything I own. From what I've learned, the 1/2 tons and 3/4 don't interchange. Are the front control arms the same between the two?
