Will a 1966 c10 frame fit under a 67 Ty

[Castillo801]

I have a short 66 frame laying around that's in good shape. The frame on my 67 has seen better days. I was wondering if it is an easy swap? I was thinking it should be pretty much all the same but wondering if anyone can help me out. Thank you

Yes, they are basically the same. I had a bare '66 1/2 ton frame a couple of years ago and did some checking on it. The only thing I am not 100% sure on is the cab mounts but it wouldn't be hard for you to measure that....

I'm not worried about the body mounts. The front bumpers are completely different

The frame ends in the front are different and also the radiator sits on the frame on the 1966. I think it would work but quite a lot would need to be changed to make the parts work.

I noticed the radiator mounts but the thing that is really holding me up is the free not bumper. I was wondering if anyone has done this and if it is to big of a pain to do. I'm pretty sure I have all the tools needed to accomplish it.
