TTT
I would think that everything would fit without any major problems, you better figure out how to get everything lined up and let me know because that's exactly what I'm doing in the next couple of months with my '67 lol J/K

I put my 72 1/2 on a 69 3/4 ton and had no problem's with part's lining up even when I swapped over my 1/2 to running gear.

The cabs are the same, but the 3/4 ton frame had different rear brackets & cab cushions......use the cab mounts for the 1/2 ton truck & you should be ok. I beleive the rad support cushions are also different on the 67(thinner?) Maybe one of the vendors can shed a little more light on the subject. Good luck,crazyL

Crazy is right.
The 2 wheel drive 1/2 ton had cab mounts that differ from all the other trucks. If you swap C/10 2 wheel drive mounts onto it, it should all line up. |
