The track width is also wider on the late truck vs 67-72. Wheels with deep offset would help. If you look there was a guy who did an early Suburban on a (shortened) late truck frame and another who did a SWB on a '02 Tahoe frame.

Im thinking on make that swap on my 71 c20 I have a 99 4x4 with 4.8 engine but I need to short the frame to fit the long bed and put cab and bed
