Re: 68-72 frame. help

Judging by the lower control arm bushings I would say it is the 73 and later style. The 67-72 should look like this.

Re: 68-72 frame. help

The drop in the frame where the cab sits is a dead give away too.

Re: 68-72 frame. help

Thanks everyone. I went and bought it. Scraping the frame. Keeping the crossmber for brake conversion and rear end. It also had lowering springs and drop shakles. All together for only $100.
