What is the best chassis to swap my 69 c10 on????
Im wanting to know the best frame for a body swap. i would like to turn a 2wd into a 4wd but i know the 67-72 4wd frames are harder to find. Plus if newer truck frame works well for this swap it would be nice to get a chassis with an ls engine in it!!!!! Thanks for any info you have

Is there something wrong with your frame that you don't want to use it? If its in good shape you should be able to convert it using a 73-87 4wd donor for parts. That won't get an LS motor, but it would be the route I would pursue.

Is the 73-87 frame roughly the same size? Is there anyone who has done this? is it a relatively straight forward swap?

He means the 73-87 4x4 parts will bolt right on your frame now.For the ls1 look at http://67-72chevytrucks.com/vboard/s...d.php?t=487797
