WTB 69-72 SWB 4x4 Frame
I'm looking for a factory uncut SWB 4x4 frame for my project truck. The frame I have was shortened by the PO and I'd prefer to go back with an original uncut frame. I'd consider buying a complete (junk) truck just for the frame if the price and location was right.
I know this will be like looking for a needle in a haystack, but it never hurts to ask. Thanks for any leads.

Yeah I saw that one but I want a 69-72 because I'm going to put a lift under it.

Re: WTB 69-72 SWB 4x4 Frame
The suspension and springs are different on a 67-68 4wd than on a 69-72...The rear spring hangers are actually different on the 71-72s than the earlier years but 69-72 springs interchange.The 67-68s are harder to get lifts for,you can go the custom route but can hardly get one just from a magazine...
The front springs and spring hangers are different on a 67-68 than a 69-72 also. Last edited by 1969k10stepside; 08-06-2007 at 05:30 PM. |

Re: WTB 69-72 SWB 4x4 Frame
most people use blocks for the rear. sdailey i will make you a DEAL on mine if you decide that you can use it. Mike
i will also do some swapping with you on yours! i can turn a bare frame on it's side and hide it better than a whole truck! Last edited by Down south truckin; 08-06-2007 at 07:01 PM. |

Mike, Thanks for the offer. I had your truck in mind. If it was only a year or so "newer". Anyone else?

Re: WTB 69-72 SWB 4x4 Frame
Thanks for all of the help. I was able to find a frame(3 actually) here locally and picked it up on Saturday. So now the fun begins.
